Basketball New Zealand has punched itself in the face.  

Broke its own nose, and is trying to tell us it walked into a door.  

The barely believable antics of not only the week just gone, but the entire season, and if players I’ve spoken to are to be believed, the pre-season, leads me to think that they are the architects of their own humiliation.  

The Indian Panthers were suspended this week after a series of stumb...

Auckland FC coach Steve Corica is well aware of the potential history that beckons at Mt Smart this coming Sunday.  

No New Zealand team has lifted silverware in a major Australian league, but the Black Knights are on track to buck that trend by winning the A-League's Premiers Plate. 

Corica says a draw or win over Perth to snare the trophy would be a massive achievement, but the big prize is still to be won.

Besides almost confirming that the Blues title defence aspirations are essentially shredded, last night's exchange underlined to the competition two very imp...
