Steve Froggatt Memorial

Steve Froggatt Memorial


The Steve Froggatt Memorial trophy is to remember Steve who was from Sheffield and first registered as 510 in 1980 before taking 240 for 1981. Not a prolific racer, Steve still managed two race wins. Both came in the same week in July 1982 with victories at his local track, Sheffield and at Rochdale. Steve was injured in a crash at Bradford at the end of May 1984. He was in intensive care in Leeds but never regained consciousness before passing away as a result of his injuries a few weeks later. 

The trophy was presented to the Grand National winner at the annual Trust Fund meeting, from 2006 onwards this has been presented to the top white/yellow top at the Trust Fund Meeting with a variety of different formats used to determine the winner.
