This is an individual trophy defended by the holder against a challenge from the top scoring opposition rider. It is held after each Premier League match and also Young Shield play-off fixtures. If the opposition top scorer is prevented from challenging due to injury sustained in that meeting, the next highest scorer will challenge.

Scott Smith of Sheffield was the holder at the end of last season.
