Welsh test next up for WU16s

Welsh test next up for WU16s

The Republic of Ireland Women's Under-16s will cross the Irish Sea to take on Wales in two International Friendly games.

Having recently come together for a training camp in Carlow, this new-look squad will now get to face the challenge of two games in Dragon Park, Newport.

Head Coach Tom Elmes has been able to call up an array of talented players, including Lauryn McCabe, who is the younger sister of Ireland WNT captain Katie McCabe.

Elmes and his staff will use this camp as an opportunity to assess his squad ahead of another game, against Switzerland, in November.
