The 2022 SGB Championship season is the 75th season of the second tier of British Speedway and the 5th known as the SGB Championship.
Summary
Eleven clubs competed in the Championship in 2022, with Oxford returning to the sport after a 15-year absence.{{cite web |url=https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/19708360.speedway-oxford-cheetahs-set-return-oxford-stadium/|title=Speedway and Oxford Cheetahs set to return to Oxford Stadium|website=Oxford Mail|access-date=18 November 2021}} The Eastbourne Eagles and the Kent Kings did not compete in the 2022 edition, with the Kings riding in the National Development League as The Royals, and Eastbourne not riding at all.
Alongside the league and Knockout Cup, a new Summer competition was added in form of a group stage before a three team final at Sheffield. The tournament was called 'The Championship Jubilee League' which was eventually suspended until the 2023 season. However the additional fixtures created an issue due to the suspension of fixtures during the Death and state funeral of Elizabeth II and the heavy rain during October. In retrospect an additional event could have been added after the completion of the league and cup fixtures. Poole Pirates dominated the season again and successfully defended their league and knockout cup double crown.{{cite web |url=https://britishspeedway.co.uk/championship/pirates-are-cup-kings/ |title=Pirates are Cup Kings |website=British Speedway |date=13 October 2022 |access-date=13 October 2022}}{{cite web |url=https://britishspeedway.co.uk/championship/pirates-clinch-league-title/ |title=Pirates Clinch League Title |website=British Speedway |date=5 November 2022 |access-date=5 November 2022}}
Newcastle Diamonds withdrew from the Championship and closed their doors on June 21. Their results were expunged from the League and they were withdrawn from the Knockout Cup and Jubilee League.{{cite web |url=https://britishspeedway.co.uk/championship/statement-newcastle-speedway/ |title=STATEMENT: NEWCASTLE SPEEDWAY |website=British Speedway |date=21 June 2022 |access-date=24 October 2022}}

Jubilee League
The three group winners were supposed to have met in a three-leg final, with each side hosting a leg. However, following the death of the Queen, the competition was initially suspended and then following fixture congestion and weather problems it was decided to hold the final the following season. The decision to hold the final seemed odd because Glasgow had pulled out and Leicester had moved leagues. It was eventually cancelled.{{cite web |url=https://britishspeedway.co.uk/championship/cjl-final-next-spring/ |title=CJL FINAL NEXT SPRING |website=British Speedway |date=7 November 2022 |access-date=8 November 2022}}
