Final table PL = Matches; W = Wins; D = Draws; L = Losses; Pts = Match Points; % = Win Rate The 1996 Conference League Knockout Cup was the 29th edition of the Knockout Cup for tier two teams. It was only the tier two competition because the Division 1 & 2 had merged during 1995 & 1996, this meant that the newly formed Conference League was tier two of British speedway at the time. Linlithgow Lightning were the winners of the Cup.Final Riders' Championship Mike Hampson
