Bold leap, not a step back: a promising prodigy joins the Lion Cubs as a full-fledged National Development League rider. Leicester has completed its NDL lineup by signing 15-year-old Seth Norman.
The former club mascot is moving from mascot laps to legitimate league racing for the first time, following a taste of action after his birthday in mid-October.
Lion Cubs team manager Jen Crossland reflected on the ascent: “It’s been rewarding to watch Seth grow over the past few years, from his mascot duties to competing in the British Youth Championship. That memorable moment when we added him to the last season’s final meeting showed how proud both he and the club were.”
Crossland added that the club has a strong track record of developing young talent for the Lion Cubs, and she believes Seth will seize this opportunity with determination and focus.
