, , ,

Ireland Women 7s  finished up as fourth seeds for the Rugby Europe Olympic qualifying tournament in Kazan, Russia, on 13 – 14 July after a win and two defeats on Day 2 of the Grand Prix tournament at Marcoussis, France. 

Ireland kicked off Day 2 with a win against England (24 – 19) before losing out to France (12 – 14) in the Cup semi final. A much reduced squad went on to lose to Spain (0 – 19) in the third place play off.

It was a tournament that “probably” ticked most of the boxes as far as Ireland were concerned, though a few of the sides kept a card or two up their sleeves ahead of those all important Olympic qualifiers in a couple of weeks time.
