The following is an A-Z list of riders who are contracted to appear in 2020, at Premiership, Championship 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. 8s and/or guest riders; (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; (4) The Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway of Nations statistics will be updated for participating riders after each round of the 2020 series.

ALSO NOTE: Premiership, Championship and National League and Cup racing didn't take place during the entire 2020 season because of the Coronavirus pandemic. We have, however, retained the riders in their intended teams in the lists below for reference purposes. Although those 2020 team listings will be removed from the 2021 Rider Index.
