GUERNSEY will be competing on two fronts at tomorrow’s Guernsey Gaelic Football Sevens. The local A team will be playing for points in the north-west division of the European league when they come up against sides from the Continent as well as competing for the weekend’s overall title.

Guernsey Gaels chairman Ray Tully said putting on the Bank of Ireland-sponsored event this year had been tough after the success of last year’s, which had been celebrating the 10th year and was the biggest yet.

‘It’s built up over the years but this year was probably the hardest to organise because you can’t expect teams to keep coming back every time. A lot of the teams last year had planned to come to the 10th event a few years in advance. In a way we had to start from scratch.’
