Official MXGP NT Team named

July 17, 2025 Filed Under: Motocross, MXGP of Australia, News

Territory Dingoes Named as Official NT Team for the 2025 MA Motocross State Challenge at the MXGP of Australia

Motorcycling NT is proud to announce the selection of the Territory Dingoes, the Northern Territory’s official team for the inaugural MA Motocross State Challenge, held in conjunction with the MXGP of Australia World Championship at Hidden Valley Motorsport Complex in Darwin from September 19–21, 2025.

This national spotlight event brings together the top 84 junior motocross riders from across the country, competing in the MX85 (12–16 years) and MX3 (14–U18 years) classes. The Territory Dingoes will represent the NT against powerhouse teams from every other State Controlling Body in Australia.

“What better outlet to showcase Australia’s precocious young talent to the world than the MXGP of Australia,” said Motorcycling Australia CEO, Peter Doyle. “The MA Motocross State Challenge will kickstart what will be a jaw-dropping three days in the Top End.”

Meet the 2025 Territory Dingoes

MX85 (12–16 years)
Angus Ramsay – #110
Blake McVeigh – #174
Brodie Holmes – #194
Harry Steel – #176
Keeley Scott – #192
Rhys Gwynne – #198

MX3 (14–U18 years)
Banjo Williamson – #124
Ben MacFarlane – #146
Kenny Mackenzie – #118
Liam Gotts – #109
Mitchell Thorneycroft – #106
Noah Holton – #119

The team will be led by Team Manager Sally Woodhill, guided by Coach Tim Gwynne, and supported by a dedicated network of families, volunteers, and Motorcycling NT, all committed to developing and empowering the next generation of riders.

“This is a milestone event for our region,” said Sally Woodhill. “To lead this team of driven and talented young riders into a world-level competition, hosted on home soil, is a real privilege.”

Tim Gwynne added, “The calibre of this group is impressive. Our focus is on race readiness, confidence, and teamwork, and these competitors are ready to give it everything.”

Community Support Behind the Dingoes

The Territory Dingoes wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of sponsors who believe in empowering NT youth and motorsport development.

“We’re proud to back the Territory Dingoes as they take on this international stage,” said Dean Merryless, Director of Brutum Logistics. “These young riders represent everything great about the NT, commitment, resilience, and passion. Supporting grassroots sport is part of our DNA, and we can’t wait to cheer them on in September.”

Community Bank Coolalinga & Districts Bendigo Bank has also come on board as a proud sponsor of the team. “We are thrilled to support the Territory Dingoes and the broader motocross community,” said Steve Buethke, Branch Manager. “As a community bank, we believe in backing local dreams and creating opportunities. This event showcases not just great sport, but also great Territory spirit.”

The Territory Dingoes name was chosen to reflect the loyalty, toughness, and fighting spirit of Territory riders. These values will be on full display as the NT team hits the all-new 1.6km motocross track at Hidden Valley, the same circuit that will host elite riders from the FIM Motocross World Championship classes: MXGP, MX2, and WMX.

Motorcycling NT CEO, Cilla Thomas, says the Territory Dingoes’ selection is a significant step forward in promoting high-performance pathways for local riders.

“The creation of the Territory Dingoes is a celebration of our youth, our sport, and the Territory’s riding culture,” said Ms Thomas. “To have our juniors compete during the return of the MXGP to Australia after 24 years is historic. We’re excited to see our local talent step up to the gate in front of a global audience.”

The MX85 riders will be the first on track on Friday, 19 September, followed by MX3 qualifying and racing across Friday and Saturday.
