With Guernsey FC at home against Merstham at the same time on Saturday afternoon, it means that Mackay and Dave Rihoy are the two biggest names making the flight up north.

Tom de la Mare, Tom Creed and Simon Geall also make the trip from the regular Green Lions ranks, as well as the young quartet of Tom Martin, Paris Pereira, Danny Hale and Kyle Smith.

Reigning Priaulx League champions and current leaders Bels are well represented, with Craig Young, Ant Austen, Joby Bourgaize and Simon Marley all included.

However, there is no place for Luke Winch or North full-back Ollie McKenzie.
