The Elite League is the top division of Speedway in the United Kingdom and in 1997 was governed by the Speedway Control Board (SCB), in conjunction with the British Speedway Promoters' Association (BSPA).
In 1997, the single speedway league in Great Britain separated after two seasons, forming a new top division. The inaugural league consisted of ten teams. The league operated on a standard format without play-offs.
