Black Sticks v Australia

After 14 months without any international hockey, New Zealand and Australia will go headto-head in the Trans-Tasman series in Palmerston North from May 27. The four-match series for both men and women will be the final selection event before the two countries name their Tokyo Olympic squads. The new Massey University turf will play host to the series from May 27 to June 1. They will be the first internationals in New Zealand since the FIH Pro League was interrupted by Covid-19 in March 2020.
