The 2025 SGB ROWE Motor Oil Premiership was the 90th season of the top tier of British speedway and the 8th known as the SGB Premiership.

Belle Vue Aces were the defending champions, while Sheffield Tigers were the defending Knockout Cup champions.

The league consisted of the same seven teams as in 2024, with Oxford again racing in all three professional leagues. The points limit remained at 40 points, with each side featuring a rising star.

The Birmingham Brummies raced one final season at Perry Barr Stadium, which was going to be demolished by West Midlands developer Corbally Group for housing. The last home meeting was 25 August with a final away match on 28 August.

Leicester Lions defeated King's Lynn to win the Knockout Cup (tier 1) for the first time in their history.

Ipswich Witches ended their 27-year wait for a title by defeating Leicester Lions in the Grand Final to be declared 2025 Champions. The Witches had beaten Belle Vue Aces in the playoff semi-finals, while the Lions beat regular season table toppers Sheffield Tigers.

Australian Max Fricke finished the season with the highest average across all competitions, ending with 10.19.
