The Primary Schools International event took place from 10-12 APRIL, 2026, at the Inverclyde National Training Centre in Largs, Scotland. This prestigious tournament featured teams from various regions, including Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Guernsey and Jersey, as they aim to defend their team titles and win additional singles medals. The team events were played on Friday afternoon and Saturday, with the individual events on the Sunday.
Today is the day we've been waiting for since November 2023 when Storm Ciaran took our home. TM Ruane Limited have started on site and we very much look forward to getting back home by the end of the summer. Despite the hard work going on rebuilding our centre, there is still plenty of work going on behind the scenes at this thriving club - completion of our divisional tournaments; planning of our Secondaries Schools campaign in Cardiff this summer and then in September we welcome over 130 players from all over the UK for the VETTs competition.
The fundraising team are working hard to ensure that we close the gap towards our rebuild costs. Please consider us if your company is keen and able to support grassroots sport across the generations, here in Jersey.
