Also named in the squad is prop Sarah Delaney, who has three senior Ireland caps, as well as members of this season’s Guinness Women’s Six Nations Squad such as Beth Buttimer, Alma Atagamen, Jane Neill, Caitriona Finn and Sophie Barrett.

Canada won the opening game of the training series with a 17-26 win last Saturday.
