Jersey Football Combination
The Jersey Football Combination is the senior football league on the island of Jersey and is run by the Jersey Football Association.
Although the league is affiliated with the English FA, it does not form a part of the English football league system.
Each year, the league champion plays the champions of Guernsey's Priaulx League for the Upton Park Trophy.
History
Originally, the Jersey Football Combination consisted of five divisions, with the Premiership and Championship open to first teams, with separate leagues for reserve sides.However, from the start of the 2015-16 season all first-team sides play in the Premiership, with a mid-season split into two divisions.
However, after one season this was scrapped and the format changed again. From the 2016-17 season onwards the top 8 teams play in the Premiership and the other 7 teams play in the Championship.
The Jersey Football Combination also selects a side to play in the FA Inter-League Cup. In 2012, the Jersey team qualified for the 2013 UEFA Regions' Cup. where they were eliminated in the group stage.
