Donegal natives Maeve Liston and Mya Alcorn have been named in the Ireland Women’s Sevens Squad for the coming season, they join Ulster’s veteran 7s players Brittany Hogan and Claire Boles in an expanded 26 player squad.
It’s certainly a squad that needed refreshed after a disappointing run of results across seven World Series tournaments from May 2019 to February 2020 as the Irish international women’s teams continued the general slump which has seen them miss every performance target, to date, that was set in October 2018.
Regular readers will be familiar with our appreciation of Alcorn. The Letterkenny native really is a prodigious talent who first came to our attention back in 2017 when, aged 15, she ran out for Ulster U18 against Stirling County.
