The Jersey Games
The Jersey Games is a football and netball festival for Prep Schools and Clubs, supported by Visit Jersey.
It is aimed at 10 to 13 year-olds and offers amazing accommodation, a fantastic sports tournament and wonderful excursions on the beautiful Channel Island of Jersey. Please enquire about other sports.
In 2025, The Jersey Games takes place from MONDAY 7th - THURSDAY 10th APRIL, using Jersey’s best sporting facilities and attractions, including The Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust.
Your teams will have a fabulous sporting and cultural trip supported by our expert staff from enquiry to returning home. Please scroll down for more information.
Sports
The main sports at The Jersey Games are:
-
Netball
-
Football (boys & girls)
If, however, you have a significant number from another sport (swimming for example), we will happily look at a supplementary programme.
As we have sent many clubs, prep and secondary schools to Jersey, we have access to Jersey’s top sports facilities.

Accommodation & Activities
Accommodation
The Jersey Games isn’t just about fantastic sporting venues, it’s also about using the very best hotel for schools on the Island.
The Merton Hotel provides excellent service and a great range of facilities. This means, for example, we are able to host a Cinema Evening, use the hotel pool areas and provide space should groups require a private meeting.
Activities
The Jersey Games offers a range of activities that aim to give participants a taste of what Jersey has to offer with activities such as a visit to Durrell Wildlife Park, Gorey Castle, St Helier and a beach visit.
We appreciate that this will be many children’s first trip away from home so we ensure they have a great time and are kept entertained at all times. On the last night there is a disco and presentation ceremony. It rounds off the week and rewards all of the hard work and endeavour throughout the coaching sessions and tournament.
