For the 1989 National League season, he joined Hackney Kestrels and topped the league averages for the London club.[7] The following season the success continued as he topped the league averages for a second consecutive season and won the National League Pairs, partnering Andy Galvin for Hackney, during the 1990 National League season.[8][9] In 1990, he won the Southern Riders' Championship.[10]

After two very successful seasons with Hackney, Schofield re-joined the Poole Pirates, where he would spend seven more seasons.[11] With Poole, he won the 1994 league title and fours championship.[12] His final season was the 1998 Elite League speedway season, with Oxford Cheetahs.[2]
