Guernsey's Under-17's hockey team say they are ready to retain their inter-island crown against Jersey at Footes Lane on Saturday.
Their coach, Helen Bailey, told BBC Guernsey the side is confident: "We're looking really strong.
"You'd never know they were from different schools as they are such a cohesive unit."
The girls have been forced to take on boys teams for practise because of a shortage of suitable women's teams.
"We've had lots of matches against the boys so we've had some competitive games which is good," said captain Pippa Inderwick.
"Inter-insulars are always very passionate - we may be going into it has favourites but you never know what's going to happen on the day," Bailey added.
Pushback is at 1030 GMT at Footes Lane on Saturday, 6 December.
