WU17s squad selected for International Friendly

The Ireland Women's Under-17s will kickstart their 2024-25 season with an International Friendly against Northern Ireland in Belfast.

Head Coach James Scott will be able to use the time with his squad to start preparations for their UEFA WU17 European Championship Round 1 Qualifiers coming in November.

Ireland were drawn into Group A6 alongside Austria, Denmark and Spain, so Scott will be keen to make the most of every session together with the players - starting with this test in Belfast on Sunday, August 18th.

The Girls in Green will also travel to Portugal for a double-header against the host nation in September.
