The Waikite women's team are one step closer to defending their Bay of Plenty title after earning a spot in the grand final.
Bay of Plenty champions Waikite beat Waimana 48-15 at Bellvue Rd on Sunday in their semifinal.
They will play Arataki this Sunday in the final, after Arataki demolished Rotoiti 48-0.
Waikite captain and manager Liza Stephens said her team were looking forward to the big match-up.
"We played them over there in the final last season, and beat them in the dying minutes," she said. "It is not going to be an easy task to go back over to Arataki [and win] on their home ground."
