The Boulevard Stadium in Hull held it's final meeting on Saturday 27th June. Speaking prior to the track's closure Ian Taylor, GBGB Chief Executive, commented:“It is regrettable to learn of the closure of the Boulevard Stadium in Hull.“Despite the industry providing considerable support to the stadium since it recommenced racing in October 2007 it is saddening to hear that lease holder Dave Marshall has been unable to realise the aspirations he held for the track.“GBGB will be working with all relevant stakeholders, including the Retired Greyhound Trust, to make arrangements to ensure the welfare of Hull greyhounds and trainers.”
