Football.
The Jersey Bulls are English Football’s newest and most southerly club. In November 2018 Jersey Bulls joined division one of the Combined Counties Football League for the 2019-20 season. Catch home game matches at Springfield Stadium in St. Helier where the football club is based. Or if you fancy watching some competition between the Channel Islands then check out the annual Muratti Vase which sees Jersey and Guernsey battle it out, a competition which has been going since 1905.
