The Hallamshire Stages - RAF Barkston Heath
CANCELLED

Sheffield & Hallamshire Motor Club's Hallamshire Stages, due to be held at RAF Barkston Heath on 23rd May, has been cancelled due to circumstances beyond the Club's control.

In March the Club was informed of a new policy prohibiting motorsport activity on operational surfaces at active RAF bases. This decision meant that we can no longer use RAF Barkston Heath as a venue for our events. The club has worked to find an alternative venue, but with just six weeks until the event is scheduled to take place, we have decided that there is now insufficient time left to organise a top quality event. We send our apologies to those competitors looking forward to the Hallamshire Stages, and thank them for their understanding. Our efforts will now be put into securing a venue for the Centenary Stages in August.
