About this listen

Episode five of The Warm Up previews a huge weekend across Jersey sport, with Sports Reporters Archie Corbett and Elliot Corbel breaking down the biggest fixtures, the key storylines and the potential season-defining moments ahead.


The Jersey Bulls head to Sevenoaks Town on Friday night under the lights, unbeaten in 2026 and sitting just one point outside the play-off places. With ten games remaining, the run-in is well and truly underway. We discuss whether the Friday night factor is an advantage, if anything less than three points would feel like a missed opportunity, and why the Bulls’ defensive record could be the foundation of their promotion push.


In netball, the Evelyn Partners Jets travel to fifth-placed Sussex Thunder off the back of two big wins. With title rivals Ryland also in action, we assess whether this weekend could shape the title race.


It could also be a significant afternoon for Jersey RFC. The league leaders are 17 points clear at the top and, while unlikely, there is a mathematical path to being crowned champions this weekend. We break down the bonus point permutations ahead of a double-header at CoinShares Park, with a full day of rugby and a potential celebration on the cards.


Across local football, there is action in Premiership 1 and the Championship divisions, alongside JFA Cup ties and the Sylvia Spinola Memorial Cup in the women’s game. We also look ahead to a demanding Sunday for Jersey’s women’s volleyball side, who face three matches in Hampshire. As always, we round things off with our latest Fixture Forecast predictions.
