[[Motorcycle speedway|Speedway]] has taken place in Berwick in two separate eras. The sport was introduced to Shielfield Park in May 1968. A dispute between the speedway club and the stadium owners ended the first spell. The sport returned to Shielfield Park in the mid-1990s. The lack of a venue in the town saw the team move to a rural location called Berrington Lough. The team, known as the [[Berwick Bandits|Bandits]], have raced at all levels from First Division to Conference League (first to third levels).
