The Priaulx League is the senior football league on the island of Guernsey, and is run by the Guernsey Football League Management LBG, (prior to 2016 the Guernsey Football Association). Although the league is affiliated with the English FA, it does not form a part of the English football league system. The winners of the Priaulx League go on to play the champions of the Jersey Combination for the Upton Park Trophy.
History The competition was first held in 1893; it is named in honour of O. Priaulx of Bury St. Edmunds, who donated £5 to purchase a trophy.
There are two other league competitions on the island (the Jackson League and Veterans League), but there is no promotion or relegation into or from these leagues.
In 2010 the league representative side (then called then Guernsey County League) defeated the Liverpool County Premier League 5–2 in the final of the FA National League System CupGuernsey triumphant – TheFA.com and went on to represent England in the UEFA Regions Cup, being eliminated in the group stage in Macedonia.
