Along with fellow XVs squad members Claire Boles and Enya Breen, the duo are part of the 26-player selection announced by IRFU Director of Sevens and Women's Rugby Anthony Eddy.

The squad which will be captained by Lucy Mulhall will convene for pre-season training on 16 August as they build towards the HSBC Women's World Sevens Series which takes place in Dubai and Cape Town in December.
