Star Sports’ acquisition of Star Pelaw, formerly Pelaw Grange Greyhound Stadium, in Chester-Le-Street, County Durham, will work in tandem with SIS for future media meetings.
Following the announcement that the Pelaw Grange greyhound Stadium will transition to the Star Pelaw, it is confirmed that the track will switch from ARC to SIS for future media meetings with the aim of having two full racecards broadcast each week.
The Boxing Day meeting at Star Pelaw will also be televised on 26th December.
Ben Keith, owner of Star Sports, said: “We have had some good feedback and interest from the takeover announcement earlier this week and are enjoying every step of the way building up to the first meeting as Star Pelaw. The excitement is already building and we look forward to confirming our opening fixture soon.
“For now, I must thank the team at SIS, who we are most grateful to and look forward to working with.”
Paul Witten, managing director EMEA at SIS, said: “We are fully committed to delivering a sustainable and successful greyhound racing service that serves the needs of all the sport’s stakeholders. This agreement with Star Sports significantly enhances our offering with additional high-quality content and we look forward to working together to make Star Pelaw a major success.”
