The 1962 Provincial Speedway League was the third season of the Provincial League.[1]

Summary

Thirteen speedway teams took part. Bradford, at their new venue at Greenfields Stadium, returned to the league after missing the previous season due to delays building their new track. The league season proved to be disastrous for Bradford and the club folded at the end of the year. New team Neath Welsh Dragons joined the league and Leicester joined after dropping down from the National League. Neath, near Port Talbot in Wales, was not a successful venue and many of their fixtures were raced at St. Austell. Rayleigh Rockets had withdrawn.[2][3]

Poole won the league championship for the second year in a row.[4] The Neath Welsh Dragons achieved what was described as the impossible by finishing second in the league standings.[5]
