the first division women's final tomorrow after defeating

Tasman was expecting to play Southland and had not watched

Tasman defensive line. Tasman's Rhianne Woolf, Laurenn McMahon

Tasman's midfield slowly worked through the Taranaki team and
some great passing from Hannah Climo, Lizzy Redwood and Jay
Sigley resulted in a goal from Sigley within the first 10

failed to stop a soft shot on goal from a penalty corner.  But
five minutes later a counter attack right from the Tasman
defensive circle saw Sigley in space. She
