Cameron Jackson Woodward (born 8 January 1985 in Mildura, Victoria) is an Australian speedway rider who has won the Victorian State Championship on three occasions.
A product of junior speedway at the Olympic Park Speedway in Mildura (where the likes of Phil Crump, Jason Crump and Leigh Adams learnt their trade), Woodward gained experience of racing in Australia before starting his British speedway career in 2003 with Elite League Poole Pirates, and initially combined speedway racing with his job back in Australia as a plumber. He then spent the 2004 and 2005 seasons in the Premier League with Edinburgh Monarchs, his average rising to over 7. He returned to the Elite League with Eastbourne Eagles in 2006, and after rising through the team, in a spell when the team won the Elite League Knockout Cup in 2008 and the Elite Shield in 2009, was given the team captaincy in 2010, and has remained with the team since.
In 2008 and 2009 he also rode the Polish Ekstraliga for Stal Rzeszów, moving on to Miskolc in 2010. Since 2011 he rides for KMŻ Lublin.
Woodward first won the Victoria State Championship in the 2005/6 season and won it again in 2007/8 and 2008/9. In 2012 he finished in 3rd place in the Australian National Championship.
Woodward also competes in long track speedway, and took part in the World Championship in 2012, finishing in 6th place overall.
He also competes in grasstrack racing, and won the British Masters Championship in 2012.
