Jersey club St Peter plan to restart their women's team from next season, potentially bringing the
       number of sides in the Jersey FA's Women's League to six.
             The club already has an interested sponsor and has appointed Ciaran Pack, a qualified
       Level 2 coach with a degree in Sports Therapy, as manager. Ciaran coached with the Blackpool FC
       Ladies team for two seasons, before returning to Jersey in 2020.
             St  Peter  are  seeking  both  experienced  players  and  enthusiastic  and  committed
       newcomers and are inviting anyone interested to make early contact with Ciaran either by email
       - ciaranpack1998@gmail.com - or phone 07456 002044.
             A statement from the club read: "St Peter have first class facilities both on and off the
       pitch and intend to fully embrace the ladies game. As soon as the team reaches a competitive
       standard, the club will seek entry into off-island County or National competitions. St Peter remain
       the only Channel Island team to have played in the English Ladies FA Cup which they did for three
       seasons from 2004 until 2007.
             "Ladies football is now the fastest growing sport worldwide, its status and standards has
       risen  in  recent  years  and  nowhere  faster  than  the  English  game.  St  Peter  FC  has  strong
       connections with professional clubs and hopes to use those connections to ensure that talented
       players who aspire to playing the game at a higher level, are given the opportunity to impress
       those clubs.
             "The return of St Peter FC next season will be a major boost for the ladies game as a
       whole. Older girls 16 and above and ladies, both experienced players and those who believe they
       could be attracted to the game, are encouraged to make contact and judge for themselves."
             St Peter's inclusion, and the potential for relaxed travel restrictions by the start of the
       2021-22 season, means a CI Women's League involving Guernsey Ladies could feature seven
       teams. St Peter last ran a women's side in 2017-18, when they finished third in the table behind
       St Paul's and St Lawrence.
