Long Eaton Invaders : ウィキペディア英語版
Long Eaton Speedway

Several motorcycle speedway teams operated from 1950 until 1997 in Long Eaton, England. Teams have raced at the Long Eaton Stadium as the Long Eaton Archers, Long Eaton Rangers, Nottingham Outlaws and the Long Eaton Invaders. The Invaders returned in 2011, with home meetings taking place at Leicester Lions' track.
==History==
Speedway had been hosted at Long Eaton from as early as 1929, the first meeting being on 18 May 1929. The ''Derby Evening Telegraph'' described the oval circuit as having four laps to the mile, with straights and the bends 'to allow broadsiding at 60 mph'. The last meeting of this era was on 10 June 1930.〔Nottingham & Long Eaton Speedway. Philip Dalling. ISBN 978-0-7524-4163-4〕
Speedway returned to Long Eaton in 1950 with a team initially called the Archers. The team operated until 1953 when the promotion closed. The Archers name was again used when the track re-opened in 1963〔(ATV news archive ), ATC, MACE Archive, accessed October 2011〕 until it closed again at the end of the 1967 season. In 1969 the track re-opened with the team named the Rangers until 1974 when the Archers name was used for one more season. The track opened again in 1979 and were called the Nottingham Outlaws but closed at the end of the 1980 season.
Another revival followed in 1982 as the team was again re-branded, but this time as the Long Eaton Invaders – the name was chosen due to the popularity of the ''Space Invaders'' arcade game at that time.〔 The Invaders won the National League Championship in 1984 and the Premier League Four-Team Championship in 1997. In early 1998 it was announced that the stadium was to be sold for housing development and the club would have to vacate immediately. The proposed development never took place, and there was an unsuccessful attempt to reopen the site for speedway racing in 2005.
The site was later approved for a residential development with public open spaces by Erewash Borough Council, and is now a housing estate.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Details on Planning Application ERE/0710/0009 )
The Long Eaton Invaders returned in 2011, competing in the (amateur status) Midland League, sharing Leicester Lions' new track in Beaumont Leys for home matches. They ended the 2011 season as Midland League Champions. The Invaders continue to compete in the (now renamed) Midlands Development League, and as of the 2013 season are still sharing the Leicester lions' track at Beaumont Park. The eventual aim is to re-establish a home venue closer to the Long Eaton area, and the search for a possible location is ongoing.
