Cann will go to the Games with Jersey England

Thursday 26th January 2006, 12:00AM GMT.

BADMINTON star Elizabeth Cann will represent Jersey in the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne this March.

Cann, the national champion, would have been obliged to compete for England had they selected her.

Hallam presumably gets the nod because of her better world ranking.
