Rider Profile
24 year old Tom Edwards, a proven front-runner in the Australian Supersport Championship.
The 2026 season will mark Edwards’ third full-time year in the Australian Supersport Championship, with his standout performance coming in 2021 when he claimed second overall in the championship standings.
“I’m really excited to be racing for Kawasaki BCperformance Racing Team,” Edwards said. “I’m looking forward to bringing my World Supersport experience to the program and riding the competitive Ninja ZX-6R package.”
Edwards brings additional international experience to the team. He raced full-time in the FIM Supersport 300 World Championship from 2018 to 2020 before progressing to the FIM Supersport World Championship, where he competed across the 2022, 2023 and 2024 seasons. During that time, Edwards amassed 46 race starts at world championship level.
“I believe the team and I are set for ultimate success this year. I am bringing racing experience from World Supersport, and having Bryan Staring in my corner as crew chief is a huge advantage. With Bryan as crew chief and skilled race technician, Callen Robertson, as my mechanic we have a strong program.
“On top of that, I have Hayden as my teammate. He gets faster every season and knows the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R very well, so between the two of us we are poised for podiums in 2026 season.”
