The Broome Motocross Club wrapped up another scintillating season last month, with the tires of the 2015 campaign screeching to a halt.

The club held its end-of-season presentation night at the Mercure Broome on Saturday, November 7, with the latest batch of division champions named.

Scarlett Griffin was the division 1 50CC winner, Joshua Schultz took out the 50CC division 2 prize, while Lincoln Heil picked up top spot in the 65CC division 1.

The 65CC division 2 was scooped by Kaleb Quintrell, while Drew Thorley collected an accolade as the best in the 85CC under-12 class.

Ryley Quintrell took out the 85cc under-12 to 16 division and finished as top dog in the 125CC Junior Lites campaign.

The 250CC Junior Lites division was tightly contested, but Taite Prime was hailed as the season champion.

Rebecca McGregor took home the Clubman class, while David Griffin was best in the Vets category.

The Pro Lites division was dominated by Jonno Ellis, Rusty Russell scooped first place in the Pro Open and Brandon Quintrell edged the senior quads division.

Dave Griffin was the highest point scorer for the campaign also, while Sam Barclay was named as the most-improved rider and Harry Rahman took out the Pecky’s Battler award.

Finally, president Troy Gibson was named as the club person of the year.

Mr Gibson said 2015 had been another competitive campaign and the club was looking forward to next year.

“It has been another successful year for the club,” he said.

“The junior lites were the standout for the year, with a number of close races.”

Mr Gibson predicted another positive year for the club in 2016, with a number of changes on the horizon.

“Next year might be the last year at the current track, so we are hoping it is going to be a big one,” he said.

“We are considering have a night meeting for the first-ever time and encourage new riders and supporters to get involved.”
