Oakleaf Kawasaki was set up 2008 to support local talent in motocross. From an early
age Team Principal Shaun Anthony loved the thrill and excitement of Motorcross having
been a family tradition for 30 years. Shaun was unable to mix Motorcross riding with a
semi-professional football career so never rode professionally although couldn't keep
away from the sport.
When his brother Dave was looking for sponsorship Shaun's building business stepped in
and this is where the Oakleaf Kawasaki Motorcross Team was launched.
From Shauns experience and awareness of the sport it was clear that riders needed
more support around them to compete at the highest level. To do this they have to have
a committed team backing them so they can concentrate on what they do best which is
race.
The team started competing in South West Premier MX Champs and Wolfsport British
Masters. From 2010 we then ran 2 riders in these competitions with Dave Anthony and
Scott Gains. 2011 saw the increased number of sponsors and also the introduction of
racing into the Red Bull Elite Nationals where Tommy Alba the new signing that year
raced on the Kawasaki 250f and finished 5th overall in this competition. Also in 2011 we
signed James Dodd who was an MX2 British Championship rider.2012 saw the team
represent Kawasaki motors Uk and become a recognise Kawasaki team in the British
Championship they ran 4 riders Alex Snow mx1 James Dood mx2 , jake Millward &
Tommy Alba as youth riders , unfortunately Tommy & James spent most of the Season
injured but Alex snow was to take 8th overall in the Maxxis British Championship & 5th in
the RedBull Pro nationals , Jake Millward was to claim the Team there first Championship
winning the Redbull Rookie Championship , the Team also competed in the FIM World
GP at Matterly Basin In the Uk with Alex Snow and claimed 20th overall !
