Team Jersey Still In Second After Island Games Day 3

Jersey equalled their Day 2 gold tally on the third day of the Island Games in Guernsey and now have a total haul of 18 gold, 17 silver and 16 bronze.

At the mid-way point of the week-long competition, Team Jersey keeps its firm grip on second place in the medals table.

They bagged eight more gold on Tuesday.  

They came in for the table tennis team - making it a special 16th birthday for Hannah Silcock who beat Guernsey alongside sister Kathryn.

That’s a wrap for today. Jersey 4 Guernsey 0 in the Jersey Team event.
