History

[edit]

The Czechoslovakian speedway team (which consisted predominantly of Czech Republic riders) competed in the inaugural Speedway World Team Cup during the 1960 Speedway World Team Cup and won the bronze medal after finishing third in the final.[1] Throughout the history of World Team Cup, the team were regular World Cup contenders from 1960 until their final World Cup in 1992.[2] They reached the final on fourteen occasions, winning the silver medal in 1963 and two more bronze medals in 1977 and 1979.[3][4]

In addition to the four medals at the World Cup, the team won a bronze medal at the Speedway World Pairs Championship. The pair of Antonín Kasper Jr. and Roman Matoušek won the medal at the 1986 Speedway World Pairs Championship.

Following the Dissolution of Czechoslovakia at the end of 1992, the riders then competed for their new speedway nations of the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
