    Men's Black Sticks goalkeeper George Enerson admits there's an element of playing home that's unwanted

    Men's Black Sticks goalkeeper George Enerson admits there's an element of playing home that's unwanted


    The Cantabrian will get to play in front of a home crowd when New Zealand play their next two FIH Pro League matches against Spain in Christchurch.

    Enerson says with friends and family watching, it can add more pressure to perform well.



    The men play Spain at 7:30pm at Ngå Puna Wai.
