The Team Speedway U21 European Championship Semi Final is going to take place in Gislaved, Sweden on the 8th August.

The four participating Countries are the host nation Sweden, Denmark (which took the place of withdrawn Russian team), Germany and Finland. They all take to the track with the ambition to finish as the winner of the meeting which means qualification to the final.
On 29th July 2015 Russian Federation (MFR)  withdrew their team from Team Speedway U21 European Championship – Semi Final. The DMU (Denmark) decided to offer their second team – they have their first team in the Final.
The points scored by DMU II will be counted towards the results of the race.
However DMU II will not be classified in the final championship result and have no right to qualify to the Final.
The final will take place in Plzen (Czech Republic) on September 12th, teams from Czech Republic, Poland and Denmark are already through to the final and they are ready to challenge the winning team from Gislaved for the 2015 Team Speedway U21 European Championship medals.
There will be a tough competition as all the riders lift themselves to a higher level as soon as they put on the race jacket with their national flag on the chest.
Riders competing in the meeting are:
