    Olympics qualification is on the mind of the Black Sticks women's team

    Olympics qualification is on the mind of the Black Sticks women's team


    They're taking on Australia in the first of three Oceania Cup games in Whangarei.

    Win the series and they've booked a spot in Paris, lose and they'll have January's second-chance qualifiers to look forward to.

    Black Sticks defender Sam Child says the team will draw on a huge well of experience.



    The women's contest has just started...with the Black Sticks men playing Australia from five past seven.
