Belfast Harlequins Ladies represented Ulster with some distinction in the All Ireland Finals of the inaugural IRFU Club 7’s with the Quins outfit beating Highfield and Blackrock to lift the Plate competiton.
Feisty flier Zoe Templeton and U19 Development player Emma Jordan were the stars of the show bagging three tries apiece on their way to the final.
Nikki Caughey chipped in with a try of her own and four conversions. Her two conversions in the Plate final, against Blackrock, were the deciding factor in a tense final.
