    Canterbury have once again reigned supreme in women's domestic rugby

    Canterbury have once again reigned supreme in women's domestic rugby


    The red and blacks have won their third consecutive Farah Palmer Cup premiership final, holding off Auckland 30-20 in Christchurch.

    Canterbury led 17-10 at halftime, before having to withstand a strong second 40 from the visitors, particularly after wing Sam Curtis was yellow carded in the 71st minute for a high tackle.

    Meanwhile North Otago hosts Wanganui for supremacy in the Heartland Championship.

    Kick off in the Meads Cup final in Oamaru is at 3:05pm.
