The following is an A-Z list of riders who are contracted to appear in 2009, at Elite League, Premier League and National League level.
NOTE: (1) All entries for the current season are as per the declared team line-ups, but do not necessarily relate to actual appearances for the named clubs, particularly in the case of No. 8 riders in the Elite League; (2) The symbol II after a team's name differentiates between a club's National level and higher league side, when more than one team was operated in the same season; (3) With regard to 'Club Honours', riders have been credited with a contribution to a league title-winning side if they rode in 6 or more matches of the team's league programme - and with a cup-winning contribution if they appeared in at least one leg of the final. This particular part of the Index is a work in progress.

RIDERS - V
VISSING, Claus DATE OF BIRTH: 6 June 1986, Grindsted, Denmark. BRITISH CAREER: (2007) Stoke; (2008-09) Peterborough. ADDITIONAL INFO: The tenacious Dane sustained a broken collarbone when Peterborough entertained Lakeside on 2 April 2009. While he recovered, Vissing was replaced in the team's declared line-up by Karol Zabik but, once fit again, he re-joined the side in May upon the club's decision to dispense with their ‘doubling-up' duo of Lee Complin and Andrew Tully. The rider suffered another blow on 7 August when, in the second and deciding leg of the Danish Championship at Fjelsted, he sustained a dislocated shoulder.
