2019 Winter Games Trans-Tasman Challenge Announcement

The New Zealand Ice Hockey Federation (NZIHF) in association with Winter Games NZ have announced the return of the Trans-Tasman Challenge; a three-test series of international ice hockey between New Zealands Ice Blacks and Australias Mighty Roos presented by Queenstown Resort College.

The 2019 Trans-Tasman Challenge Ice Hockey Series brings together New Zealand and Australia, two rival sporting nations, as part of the 10th Winter Games NZ. The three-game test series promises action-packed, edge of your seat excitement with all the passion you’d expect when there’s Trans-Tasman pride on the line. New Zealand and Australia last met at the 2018 Winter Games NZ. Each country has won the three-game series twice, New Zealand's Ice Blacks in 2009 and 2018 and Australia's Mighty Roos in 2011 and 2017. The Mighty Roos will be out for redemption while the Ice Blacks will want to maintain their superiority on home ice.
