An accessible football club in Guernsey will be playing in an international tournament in Northern Ireland.

The Guernsey Dynamics Football Club have been preparing to play in the George Best Community Cup in Belfast in June.

It is the only sports club in Guernsey which is for people with learning disabilities or additional needs.

The George Best Community Cup, run by the Irish Football Association, is an annual five-a-side competition for those with disabilities.

Joe Hind, coach at Guernsey Dynamics Football Club, said: “For the individual players, I have seen growth, personal and in professional football, over the last couple of years.

“It is something I did not realise I would put as much of my life into as I have and got so much more out the other side.”

Jorge Gois, a player at the club, has said that playing on the team has impacted him “a big lot”.

The team have received a £2,000 donation from a local swimming club to help them take part in the tournament.
