    A big weekend for the tight knit Black Sticks women's hockey side

    A big weekend for the tight knit Black Sticks women's hockey side


    Both they and Black Sticks men are competing in a North versus South tournament in Hamilton starting this afternoon, which is doubling as an Olympic trial.

    Team North striker Alia Jacques admits it will be heartbreaking for those who don't make the team for Tokyo.



    The first women's game begins at 12:30pm, followed by the men at 2:30pm.
