Guernsey Champions

Jersey Champions

The Jersey Football League was founded in 1904. All winners prior to World War I were military sides, except in 1906 and 1913. Since then only in 1926 were the winners a military side. Early trophies were won outright after three titles. The current James Marquis Memorial Trophy was presented by Young Men's Christian Association Football Club in memory of the president of the Jersey Football Association and their club. It is a 16" silver (hallmarked) trophy with a 6" non detachable lid standing on a 9" wooden base which has three rows of shields giving the previous winners of the trophy. It is engraved -

James Marquis Memorial / Presented To The / Jersey Football Association /
By The Y.M.C.A. Football Club / Perpetual Trophy For The / First Division League /
In Memory of James Marquis / For Seven Years President Of The /
Jersey Football Association / And Also President Of Y.M.C.A. Football Club /
"His Memory Endureth" /

There were also the Saturday Football League (founded in 1934) and the Caesarean Football League (functioning by 1938) operating in Jersey alongside the J.F.L. at various times. The J.F.L. and Saturday League amalgamated in 1975 to form the present day Jersey Football Combination.

See below for the winners of the second level (Division 2/Championship) until 1975 and the Jersey Football Combination winners since 1975.

W.E. Guiton Memorial Trophy

The trophy is a large hexagonal with thin double handles, hallmarked silver trophy standing 11" high on a 4" wooden base. It is engraved on the front panel –

The / W.E. Guiton / Memorial / 2nd Div. / Trophy / Presented To / J.F.A. / 
By Family Of / The Late Mr. W.E. Guiton / 1931 / Presented By / The Jersey Evening Post
Walter Ernest Ingram Guiton was a printer, who acquired the Evening Post within weeks of its being founded in 1890 and developed it into what was to become Jersey's longest lasting daily newspaper - today titled the Jersey Evening Post and the island's only newspaper.
The third son of painter John Marett Guiton and Susan Godfray, he was part of a large family (he had two sisters and five brothers). His great-great-grandparents, Jean Guiton ( -1785) and Marie Simoneau (1754-1822), who married in Jersey in 1778, are believed to have come to Jersey from France.
Born in Jersey on 9th October 1856, he left school early and learned the printing trade as an apprentice at The Constitutional before going to work in London. He returned to Jersey and at the age of 23 he bought the Charles Street printing business of T. Mackenzie. He immediately became involved with newspapers, undertaking the printing and production of The Weekly Advertiser, The Jersey Observer and La Chronique Financiere.
The Rev William Burberry started the Evening Post in 1890, but it failed to make an impact in a highly competitive market. Owing £40 for printing costs to Walter Guiton and unable to pay, he sold the newspaper to him for that amount.
Guiton developed a remarkable judgment for what the Jersey public wanted from its newspapers and one by one he saw off the opposition and ensured that his newspaper reached all corners of the island with a distribution network using horse drawn vans. He expanded his Charles Street premises in St. Helier through to Bath Street, invested heavily in the latest presses, and witnessed the inauguration of electrically powered presses in 1926, shortly before his death the following year. Walter Guiton was active in the Methodist Church and his funeral took place at Aquila Road Chapel.
The business passed to his son-in-law Arthur Harrison, and eventually to his grandson Arthur Guiton Harrison. It was to expand considerably in the latter part of the 20th century, giving rise to the Guiton Group, named in his honour.

On the side panels of the trophy are engraved the winners in four columns –

Sark

Football was played on Sark in the 1950s, with islanders typically playing friendlies against visiting ships' crew members and seasonal staff coming to work in the summer. It was not until 2001 that an official football team, Sark FC, was created. Having joined the Guernsey FA, Sark FC played in the GFA Cup for four years, mostly against social club teams from Guernsey.
