The Royal Gibraltar Police’s football team flew to the United Kingdom this past weekend and competed in a football match against the Northamptonshire Constabulary. The opportunity arose following contacts between Commissioner Eddie Yome of the RGP and Deputy Chief Constable Martin Jelley of Northamptonshire Constabulary. Both officers attended the same Strategic Command Course in 2008 and have maintained a close professional and personal relationship since then.
The Uefa.com website has reported that GFA footballer George Wink will “forever be a special name in the history of Gibraltarian football” after scoring the team’s first goals in an UEFA competition during the recent Under-17 qualifying matches against Ireland and Armenia.
