DINNINGTON RACING CLUB HISTORY
DINNINGTON INSTITUTE ROAD &
PATH was formed in 1925, affiliated to the Miners
Colliery Institute. A red ash or shale banked
cycle track was built on the Institute Sports
field so the club had a really strong racing membership
throughout the 1920's, 30's and 40's. These were
the hey day years of the club as the membership
decreased during the 1950's and was eventually
disbanded in 1955.
The club was re-formed in 1960 by Joe Marsh Senior,
continuing the tradition of track racing in the
1960's, 70's and 80's. After the demise of the
Sports meeting at the beginning of 1970, the club
gradually grew away from the Colliery Institute.
Most of the riders now raced at all disciplines
so the name was changed in 1973 to DINNINGTON
RACING CLUB.
The club first became a sponsored club in 1974
& has managed to secure to the present day.
