HAPPY TO BE BACK: Ireland Women's Rugby Press Conference, IRFU High Performance Centre, Sport Ireland Campus, Blanchardstown, Dublin 22/3/2023
Following a four-year absence, Cork native Deirbhile Nic a Bhaird is delighted to be back in the mix for Ireland ahead of their Women's Six Nations opener against Wales in Cardiff on Saturday.
Having previously spent time in a pre-tournament training squad for the home-based Rugby World Cup in 2017, Nic a Bhaird subsequently made her international 15s debut in the 2019 Championship. Before picking up four caps across that edition of the Six Nations, the Ballincollig woman had been part of the IRFU’s Sevens programme.
