[edit] International Competition

Jersey has a long rivalry with fellow Channel Island Guernsey playing an annual encounter against each other known as the inter-insular match. The most recent encounter in 2006 saw a 15 run victory for Guernsey, who have now won the encounter five consecutive times, although have a long way to go to match Jersey's run of ten consecutive victories from 1992 to 2001. [2] They made their debut at the European Championship in 2006, and finished as the Division Two runners-up, the tournament being won by Norway. They will remain in Division Two in 2008.
