16.05.2012 > Seven-a-side fixture this weekend

The Club is playing in its First Round match in this year's Hampshire, Isle of Wight and CI Inter-Club knockout, the Hampshire Sevens. Having succesfully defeated Les Mielles in the preliminary round, the team now face a tricky away match against La Moye.

The match will start at 8.30am this coming Sunday, 20th May 2012. Both The Captain and 'A' Team Captain, Paddy O'Connell were pleased to see the number of members that came out and supported the team last month and both would love to see a similar amount of support this weekend.

If you can make it up to La Moye to support our Club, please make an effort to do so as the support does help the players.

15.05.2012 > Senior's retain League position

The Royal Jersey's seniors team find themselves at the top of the Inter-Club Seniors League following the second round of matches in this year's event. Played at Les Ormes yesterday, the Club's team came in second with a combined total of 126 stableford points. Les Mielles won the round with 128 points.

This resulted in the Royal Jersey and Les Mielles tied at the top with 14 league points. However, we are in first place by virtue of points scored - one more than Les Mielles!

Well done and a hearty thank you must go to Keith Smith who returned an excellent 39 points for the Royal, two shots better than anyone else in the field!
