TWENTY-FOUR hours after Rye House's trip to Lincolnshire, the Silver Ski Rockets are back on home turf to face the Redcar Bears in more Premier League action.
The 2007 Young Shield winners are currently mid-table, but still targeting silverware in the shape of the Knock-Out Cup.
The Bears have a 50-39 first leg deficit against Scunthorpe to overturn on Thursday, August 13, in order to face King's Lynn in the final four.
Key to their hopes is fast developing Australian and team No.1 Ty Proctor.
The 22-year-old is flanked by three veterans in the shape of three-year Grand Prix star, double former League Riders Champion and five-times Pairs winner Carl Stonehewer, 37, established German star and 2007 Rocket Robbie Kessler, 36, and, of course, 1992 World Champion Gary Havelock, 40.
Bringing the Bears' average back down again is former Sheffield Tiger and 2006 British U21 Champion Ben Wilson.
