Would it be helpful if I cleared a few things up?:
 

Hub/base for travel: this has been Southampton in recent years, using Blue Islands flights & with easy access to m3/m27. That’s how we travel, with opponents offered the opportunity to do the same (but free to use Heathrow or Gatwick if they prefer). We’ve never used Heathrow as a base (in fact you couldn’t fly direct between JER & LHR for many years until the service was re-established in 2020.)

Thank you. That is very helpful. I only assumed because when I travelled to Jersey with my club all those years ago when the Reds were at this level, we used British Airways so I thought Gatwick was considered the "base" which would have been transferred to Heathrow when they moved the flights. I think it would make sense then for you to be in SC given Marlborough are staying up and I can't imagine they'll try to force you up to Oundle and Northampton in SE or down to Cornwall in SW.

I hope Jersey have a good season next year and I hope we're in the same league.
