opposition history

The Jersey Football Combination, run by the Jersey FA since 1975, is the island's top football league, featuring 13 teams in two divisions. While affiliated with The FA, it isn't part of the English football league system. Its champions face Guernsey's Priaulx League winners in the Upton Park Trophy. A 2015 bid to join UEFA/FIFA was rejected, leading to the creation of the Parishes of Jersey team under ConIFA.

In 2018, Jersey Bulls FC was formed and joined the Combined Counties League Division One for the 2019–20 season. Under manager Gary Freeman, they won 27 straight matches, but the season was voided due to COVID-19. The 2020–21 season was also cut short, though Bulls remained unbeaten and were later promoted in the FA's league restructuring.

In their first three seasons, Bulls placed 4th, 3rd, and 2nd, narrowly missing promotion in 2024 after a points deduction. In 2025, they won a playoff final against Cobham, with keeper Euan Van De Vliet starring in a penalty shootout. They secured promotion to the Isthmian League South East Division, becoming the highest-ranked team in the Channel Islands after Guernsey FC’s relegation.
