The sporting community in the Channel Islands has been remembering footballers who lost their lives in World War One.
In 1914, after a 2-1 victory for Guernsey over Jersey in the Channel Islands Muratti, the competition was suspended as many football players answered the call to arms.
Evidence shows players from the Jersey Contingent requested equipment to take part in matches while they were training in Ireland and mainland UK, according to local historian Ian Ronayne.
"They played a match in October 1915 in Aldershot against the Guernsey contingent," he said.

"We had Jersey and Guernsey competing, how else, but with a football match - the only way to settle honours in those days before going off to this horrendous war."
Bob Lawrence, club secretary for Jersey Wanderers, said the loss of island players formed a "very important" of the club's history.
They went on to win the first Wheway Cup in the island after the war - named after the Wanderers' captain - which the Jersey Football Association dedicated to all the island players who lost their lives.

Jersey ministers will discuss firework ban
Penny Elderfield
BBC Channel Islands News
An online petition calling for fireworks to be limited to licensed displays in Jersey has attracted more than 1,000 signatures.
It means ministers will discuss the matter and provide a response.
Supporters want to stop individuals being able to buy and use fireworks, claiming they can cause serious distress to pets, could hurt people and damage property.
If the petition gets 5,000 signatures, it will be considered for debate in the States Assembly.
Petition creator Andy Jones said the use of fireworks is a "balancing act"...

Nominations are open for Sark's general election.
The island's residents have two weeks to put themselves forward to be elected to Chief Pleas, while the election will take place on 12 December.
BBCCopyright: BBC
Concerns have been raised over the "breakdown of good government" in Sark, with a letter sent from the Ministry of Justice to the island's government reportedly stating that it was now a "serious state of affairs"
The Guernsey Press - the newspaper which received the leaked letter - reported that Lord Keen, the UK minister responsible for the Crown Dependencies, had concerns over the mass resignations from the Finance and Resources Committee, and the failure to agree a budget - which has now been passed.
The island's electricity provider met with Chief Pleas after it announced it will stop selling power to households at the end of the month.
It comes after Sark Electricity was forced to lower prices by 14p to 52p per kilowatt hour - a decision the government said it would not help appeal.
It's not clear yet whether the meeting resulted in some sort of resolution.

States members will be asked to sign off the amended budget on Friday.
A new president will also be elected for the committee in charge of implementing island-wide voting.
