The Milton Keynes Knights were a Speedway team which operated under various names from 1978 until their closure in 1992. [1]

The team were based at the Groveway Greyhound Stadium until 1988 . In 1989 they moved to the new stadium at Elfield Park. However following complaints of noise from a few local residents and falling crowds the track closed in 1992. The site of the track (Elfield Park) is still unused.
