History

The competition replaced the National League Four-Team Championship (held from 1976 until 1994).[3] It was first staged in 1995 when the Premier League was the highest tier of British speedway because the top two divisions had merged. However, in 1996, it reverted back to a competition for second tier teams in the British Speedway system.[4] From 1997 until 2016 it was known as the Premier League Four-Team Championship.

In 2017, the competition changed its name to the SGB Championship Fours.[5]
