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.

Hockey

Tulse Hill have come a long way in just 10 years, indeed, all the way to Milton Keynes and the Women's Inter-League play-offs which start this afternoon, writes Bill Colwill.

The South First Division winners open against Colwall, from the West, and then tomorrow, Poynton, from the North, and Bury St Edmunds, finishing on Sunday against Aldridge. The first two in the round-robin tournament go through.

However, Tulse Hill are not without players with League experience. Kath Tilbury, Kate Cowlard and Jen Waghorn, along with the Irish pair, the captain Sheena Bailey and Richelle Flanagan, will be showing the way.

Aldridge, who won the Royal Al-Faisel Midland Premier from Crimson Ramblers, are perhaps the favourites. Relegated from the National League last season, they are determined to win their place back.
