The Ireland Women’s Under-19s will take on Switzerland in two International Friendlies in Spain.

Set up to aid their preparation for UEFA European WU19 Championship Round 2 Qualifiers, the two games will see the Girls in Green travel to Alicante to face a strong Swiss team.

Manchester City midfielder Eve O’Carroll returns to the squad for the first time since October 2024, while there are 14 players selected who will hope to feature in the upcoming SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division season.

This is all about helping the WU19s for their three EURO Qualifiers in April that could secure passage through to a third Finals tournament. But they must overcome France (Friday, April 10th), Germany (Monday, April 13th) and Slovakia (Thursday, April 16th) to top Group A6.
