    Hockey New Zealand face a pivotal decision after the Black Sticks women earned a berth in the Pro League with victory at the Nations Cup in Chile


    The women pulled out last season due to costs and the busy travel schedule.

    The men also withdrew from this year's event.

    The governing body's network general manager Ken Maplesden says other options are being considered, particularly involving bilateral series.
