GUERNSEY will seek revenge on their bitter rivals tomorrow night as the inter-insulars take place at KGV. And for the first time the men’s and women’s teams will square off against Jersey in a marquee.

Darts matches always have a good atmosphere but anyone easily offended by loud noise should possibly stay away. ‘I find the noise travels a lot better in a marquee, so it’s a lot louder,’ said men’s captain Robbie Davidson.

‘And with the home crowd in there, hopefully it will be in our favour. We always get really good support from the Guernsey crowd.’ Both the men and women’s squads are made up of the 10 players with the best aggregates over the course of the season.
