Women: Teams up for Ulster v Munster

by

, , ,

Ulster Women kick of their interprovincial series tomorrow afternoon at Ravenhill against Munster Women. (KO 3:00pm)

Head Coach Jonathan Gillespie has handed first competitive starts to Queen’s University talented backs Peita McAlister and Emma Jordan, as well as Cooke openside flanker Hannah Kilgore and Exiles fullback Vicky Irwin.

The backs, though inexperienced, should be there or thereabouts however I do have my concerns at what is going to be a small pack up front.

The forwards do feature the experienced Lizzy Ballentine, Nikita Armstrong and Sorcha Chipperfield, though they will all be playing in largely unfamiliar positions and,  I must say, the new second row pairing of Chipperfield and Ballentine is not the biggest I’ve seen!

However, with, I believe, none of the Ireland World Cup front liners available throughout the series, it is a chance for the players on the pitch to make their mark . . .
