The National League was formed in 1932 combining teams from the Northern League and Southern League.[1] It was the fourth season of speedway in the United Kingdom.[2][3]

Summary

From the teams that finished the 1931 Northern League, Leeds Lions and Preston closed down, leaving only Belle Vue Aces and Sheffield. From the 1931 Southern League, High Beech and Lea Bridge had closed Plymouth Tigers were new competitors.

In the first half of the season, the teams competed for the National Association (NSA) Trophy in a league format won by Stamford Bridge Pensioners. In May 1932, the Southampton Saints promotion left Banister Court Stadium to take over the licence at Lea Bridge Stadium, with the team becoming the Clapton Saints.[4] At the end of the NSA Trophy phase Sheffield dropped out.

In the second half of the season Wembley Lions won the inaugural National League title. Dicky Case of the Wimbledon Dons finished with the highest average.
