    The Black Sticks women have claimed their place at next year's World Cup, much to the financial relief of their governing body

    The Black Sticks women have claimed their place at next year's World Cup, much to the financial relief of their governing body


    They beat Australia in a penalty shoot-out in Darwin, claiming the Oceania Cup series 2-1 and qualifying for next year's global showpiece in Belgium and the Netherlands.

    The triumph means they dodge any potential meat-pack raffles and sausage sizzles.

    Captain Olivia Shannon has acknowledged the fiscal significance on TVNZ Plus.



    Meanwhile, the men fell to Australia 4-1 but still qualify as Oceania's second-best side.
