Schlein will ride for the Bees with an average of 7.25 points

Australian Rory Schlein has agreed to return to Coventry for the 2010 season.

The 25-year-old, who suffered multiple injuries in a mid-season crash in 2009, will line up for the Bees on an average of 7.25 points.

Meanwhile American Ricky Wells will take the Bees' second doubling-up role following Josh Auty's loan move to Sheffield Tigers.

Wells, who has been loaned to Stoke, will be available for Coventry when not riding for the Potters.

Promoter Colin Pratt said: "Rory had a very unlucky season this year with some nasty injuries.

"But he will be recuperating over the winter and we're sure a fully fit Rory will do us proud next year.

"Ricky gained plenty of experience this year and the move to Stoke along with the doubling-up role with us is the right one for him at this stage."
