Forrest Hill Milford beat the odds when they upset the previously undefeated Three Kings United in the Women’s Knockout Cup. The victory progressed Forrest Hill through to the semifinals of the national competition, where they will meet Christchurch side Cashmere Technical on August 28. To help get the players and their management team down to Christchurch, player Chloe Wil- son has set up a fundraising page. ’’Unfortunately our club does not have the funds to pay for every player and coaching staff so we need your help to get us there and make FHM and you proud,’’ Wil- son says on the page.

The regulations set out for the Women’s Knockout Cup and Chatham Cup state NZF will pay a subsidy to teams required to travel more than 300km return. NZF competitions manager Daniel Farrow says the two national competitions are ‘‘treated equally in terms of financial assistance available’’ to teams.
