Patumahoe and Weymouth will play off for a chance to win the Richards-Martin Shield when they contest semi-finals this weekend.

Patumahoe will host Puketapapa at Clive Howe Field after edging them for a right to host the semi-final, courtesy of a win over Weymouth last week.

That match kicks off at 1pm.

“Looking forward to the challenge,” Patumahoe coach Anthony Campbell told Counties Sports Hub.

“Puketapapa Roskill have threats from 1-15. They’re big, physical and fast so we’ll really have to front up on defence.

“The girls have been working hard this season to be here in a semi-final and I know they’ll give it everything they have.”

Weymouth will travel to top qualifiers Grammar TEC, needing to beat the top ranked side if they are to advance to the final.

That game takes place at Orakei Domain from 2.45pm.
