Guernsey's under 11 footballers have won the schools' Muratti, reclaiming the trophy for the first time since 2015.
They travelled to Jersey yesterday to play their arch rivals at Grainville, hoping for success having trained hard since their unlucky 4-3 defeat on home soil last season.
The squad selected by coaches Rich Sutton, Jordan Kelly and Darran James was made up of 14 children, including one girl. Chloe Ingrouille is now one of only three girls to make the squad after Maya Le Tissier and Guilia Rihoy in recent years.
