An extended Munster Women's squad, sponsored by Keane's jewellers, has been named by the coaching team ahead of the 2019 Women's Interprovincial Series.
Five uncapped players have been selected, including Sarah O'Gorman (UL Bohemian), Dorothy Wall (Fethard & District), Ciara O'Halloran (Shannon), Grainne Fennelly (Thurles), and Limerick native Stephanie Carroll (Railway Union).
O'Gorman, Wall and O'Halloran have all come through Munster's Talent Identification Programme (TIP) which continues into its second season and develops the skills of players aged 19-21 alongside the Munster Women's programme.
Carroll and Wall have also been involved with the Ireland Women's 7s programme.
Laura Delaney is making a welcome return to the squad having been sidelined through injury for a number of seasons.
Laura Guest's side get their Interpro Series underway against Ulster on Saturday 17 August at Irish Independent Park, kick-off 3pm.
As part of the IRFU's extended five-week Interprovincial Series, the Munster Women's squad will travel to Connacht in round two at the Sportsground on Saturday 24 August, before hosting Leinster in round three at Irish Independent Park on Saturday 31 August.
Teams will then be seeded based on their finishing positions with semi-finals taking place on Saturday 14 September and the final scheduled for Saturday 21 September.
The U18 Interprovincial Series will mirror the senior tournament with the Munster U18 Girls squad taking on their provincial counterparts in double-headers with the Munster Women's squad.
