Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It was stay-as-you-are in the Men's National League First Division yesterday, with the top three teams all winning. First-placed Reading coasted to a comfortable 4-0 victory against pointless St Albans, while Cannock, in second, beat Canterbury 3-1. Loughborough Students, 5-1 winners at home to Teddington, remain in third place.

Those results leave Teddington and St Albans detached at the bottom and looking destined for automatic relegation.
Guildford's good form of late continued with a 5-2 win away at Firebrands with their captain Danny Hall scoring a hat-trick for the second straightgame.
In a middle-of-the-table clash at Surbiton, the home side threw away a two-goal lead, Matt Daly scoring both from penalty corners, to draw 2-2 with Old Loughtonians.
The leading sides in Women's Premier One were all held to draws on Saturday to leave the top of the table unchanged. The top side Chelmsford saw a first-minute lead, given to them by Lynn Bollington, cancelled out by Alex Danson's goal in the 52nd minute. Ipswich, in second, fought back from 2-0 down against Olton & West Warwicks to draw 2-2 and Fyffes Leicester needed a last-minute penalty corner from Becky Herbert to draw 1-1 at home to Doncaster.
