Guernsey_FC_LogoTHE young guard will take centre stage this weekend as an experimental Guernsey FC side begins its quest for cup glory at Spelthorne Sports.

Tony Vance’s Green Lions squad for the Division One Challenge Cup second round encounter includes five teenagers and potentially three debutants, as he looks to rotate his numbers now the league season is in full flow.

Rhys Jordan is the most notable inclusion, the 16-year-old New Zealand Under-17 World Cup player amongst that quintet of teenagers, the others being Tom de la Mare, Joe Alvarez, James Hamon and Luke Winch.

De la Mare impressed on his debut cameo last weekend at Hounslow, with Vance looking forward to youth once again playing a prominent role.
