KINGSPAN STADIUM TO HOST IRELAND WOMEN

Kingspan Stadium will host an Ireland Women’s open training session on Saturday 10th October 2015. This news comes after the exciting announcement that Dublin and Belfast will host the Women’s Rugby World Cup in 2017, the final stages of which will take place at our very own Kingspan Stadium.

WOMEN’S RUGBY

Tickets for this event are available now and are complimentary to all supporters. You can print yours now from home by visiting www.ulsterrugby.com/Tickets. Tickets are also available via telephone (028 9049 3222 Option 2) or from the Ticket Office at Kingspan Stadium.

There are now 16 adult women’s teams playing in competitions across the province, almost double the number participating two years ago. The popularity of women’s rugby has increased dramatically and the Ireland team has been at the forefront of the success story, winning the Six Nations Grand Slam in 2013 and claiming the Six Nations title earlier this year. At the Women’s RWC in 2014, they caused one of the biggest upsets in Women’s World Cup history when they defeated four-time defending champions New Zealand in the pool stages, before going on to finish fourth – their best ever result and one they will no doubt be looking to top in 2017. Gates will open at 1.30pm and supporters will have access to the coveted Women’s Rugby World Cup Trophy and the Women’s Six Nations Trophy for photo opportunities in the Scrum Bar. An open training session will take place between 2.30pm and 4pm and following that squad members will be available for a meet and greet.
