Muddied but unbowed: Gus Mackay heads for the dressing room at half-time against Bels at the Track.
WELCOME to the home page of Guernsey football's newest and, we would say, most ambitious club, carrying the game of one of the island's founder football clubs back in the late 1890s: Guernsey Athletics, hence the Back to the Future logo you will see on certain pages on this site.
We are very grateful to have the support of superb sponsors in Clydesdale Bank International and the men behind 'Tics II' aim to provide something new and very different for the young footballers of Guernsey.
The ethos is about player development and we are confident we will help bring about a brighter more successful island football scene.

SATURDAY 6 FEBRUARY
BOSS PRAISES TEAM IN DEFEAT
ATHLETICS went down 3-0 to title favourites Bels at the Track today, but Steve Ogier said he will take heart from a performance which severely tested the in-form leaders.
There was no doubt Bels ere worhy of the points on a heavy surface, but Tics had several scoring chances and there were any number of good individual performances from our team who continue to improve.
Bels' goals came from Simon Marley on 20min, Dave Rihoy on 51 and Craig Young, via big deflection, on 81min.
Gus Mackay went close on a couple of occasions including a superb dipping 30 yarder late on which the keeper did well to flick onto the bar.
We stay fifth in the table.
