Digga Sponsorship - Nick Morris Racing
Young Australian Nick Morris has enjoyed an astounding amount of success since he appeared on the UK scene three years ago. Since 2010 he has helped rake in not one, but at least three pieces of league-racing silverware at National, Premier, and Elite League levels! His taste for a trophy or two first began back home in Australia. It's no wonder clubs across Britain are tripping over each other to sign him every year... Success seems to follow him wherever he goes! Read more about Nick in our news section.
