Elite touch in Jersey is a unique opportunity for Islanders.  Jersey compete internationally independant from the other British Nations and have an outstanding track record despite the significantly inferior player base.  Jersey representatives compete internationally annually in one or more of the following competitions: Home Nations, European Championships, World Cup plus other international fixtures and club tournaments across Europe.  At the 2011 Touch World Cup, the Jersey Mixed Open Team narrowly missed out on a semi-final spot. 

Training for the Jersey teams is at a professional level and includes up to date elite skills and tactics, strength and conditioning, psychological skills training, team building, nutritional advice and cardiovascular and resistance trainng programmes.
