THERE will be two Nick Robilliards in the Guernsey line-up as they start their 2010-11 HA Trophy hockey campaign away in Southampton on Sunday.

Goalkeeper Nick has long established himself in the island side, but Elizabeth College midfielder Nick is one of several new faces in the Sarnian team who play Tulse Hill and Dulwich for a place in the third round of a competition Guernsey heroically won two campaigns back, only to lose at the first hurdle last season.

Coach Andy Whalley refers to the outfielder Robilliard as 'a rising star' and one of many coming through the local system.

'He's very skilful, very good on the ball and he will start in midfield, probably inside right.'
