Guernsey FC women win historic Jersey league title

Guernsey FC women have dropped just two points so far this season

Guernsey FC's women's team made history as they became the first football side from their island to win a Jersey league title.

The Sarnians beat Jersey Wanderers 8-0 at Victoria Park to clinch the title, having drawn with second-placed Rozel Rovers earlier on Saturday.

The Green Lionesses are in their first season playing in the Jersey Football Combination.

Their draw with Rozel was the first time they had failed to win all season - they have conceded just eight goals in their 11 matches and scored 66 goals.

The matches on Saturday were the team's first games at Guernsey FC's new Victoria Park ground.

"It's been great going over to Jersey and getting the eight games over there, but having the fixtures over here and then to have that presentation in front of our friends and family and all the supporters is really great," Guernsey manager Anna Gauvain told BBC Radio Guernsey.
