Congratulations Royal Navy Football on your success winning Inter Services Championship 2026. I watched with pride the performance last night of the Royal Navy defeating the Army 2-0 at Fratton Park.
RN Masters team yesterday also defeated the Army 3-0 winning the Inter Services Masters Championship 2026. The Masters team made history yesterday winning this trophy for the first time ever.
RN U23’s also had an excellent performance loosing a high scoring game 2-3 against the Army.
Talking to the RN women’s management team tonight about their performances this year (1-2 RAF & 1-4 Army) with limited resources shows the future is bright in the years ahead for our Ladies.
