insular hockey and U21 Muratti on latest Warm Up podcast

The latest episode of The Warm Up podcast turns its attention to a huge weekend for Jersey hockey, with six inter-insular matches against Guernsey taking centre stage.

Men’s first-team player-coach Robbie Forrest joins the podcast as the show’s first guest to preview the occasion, discussing preparations for the fixtures and the significance of the annual Channel Islands rivalry.

With three men’s and three women’s matches scheduled across the day at Les Quennevais, the clash represents one of the biggest dates in the local hockey calendar. Jersey’s men will be hoping to respond to last year’s defeats in Guernsey, while the women aim to build on their clean sweep across the islands in the previous meeting.

The episode also previews the Under-21 Muratti, where Jersey travel to Guernsey for the Ambassadeur Bowl under the captaincy of Will Yates. Managed by Jack Cannon, the young Caesareans will be determined to maintain their recent dominance in the fixture after two fiercely contested encounters that both saw Jersey reduced to ten men.

In football, the panel discuss Jersey Bulls’ trip to Erith Town as they look to extend their unbeaten start to 2026, while Jersey Bulls Women return to action following the league split with an away fixture against South Park United.

There is also a look across the local game, with key matches in Premiership 1, Premiership 2 and Championship 1, alongside discussion of Jersey athletes making headlines in professional sport.
