Introducing the Celtic Challenge |Â #TeamOfUs
This is the first year of the Celtic Challenge, a unique tournament where a Combined Provinces XV will play in two home and two away games over a six-week period against their counterparts from Scotland and Wales.
This pilot tournament will give Irish rugby the chance to develop a wider group of players to cross country competition and represents a great warm up for the Women's Six Nations in late March/early April
