The 2023 Sports Insure SGB Premiership was the 88th season of the top tier of British speedway and the 6th known as the SGB Premiership.[1][2]

There was an increase of one team after the Leicester Lions opted to move up from the SGB Championship.[3]

Defending champions Belle Vue Aces topped the table, but were knocked out in the playoff semi-finals. Last year's runners-up Sheffield Tigers went on to win the title, beating Ipswich Witches in the Grand Final. It was the first time Sheffield had won a top flight British speedway championship.

2023 summary

Seven clubs competed for the league championship, with Leicester Lions joining them from the division below. Each club raced against each other four times (home and away twice), meaning a total of 24 fixtures each. The 'Super Heat' scoring system was retained from the 2022 season, however extra points for away fixtures were scrapped in favour of an aggregate bonus point.

The top four teams in the league qualified for the playoffs, with the two semi-final winners then reaching the Grand Final. The points limit remained at 39 points for six riders, with one additional 'rising star'.[4]

Sheffield Tigers won the title for the first time in their history. They beat Ipswich Witches in the final, overcoming an 18-point first leg deficit to win 92-88 on aggregate. Belle Vue Aces finished the regular season top of the table, but were eliminated at the semi-final stage by Ipswich.

Despite missing out on the league title, Ipswich won the Knockout Cup, which returned for the first time since 2019. They beat Sheffield 97-83 in the final. Belle Vue Aces won the Pairs Championship.

The 2023 season also marked the final seasons for Wolverhampton Wolves and Peterborough Panthers after the closure of their tracks.
