The Republic of Ireland Women's Under-17 squad has been confirmed for their 2021/22 UEFA Women's Under-17 European Championship Qualifying Round games. Head Coach James Scott has selected a strong roster of players - with eight different EA SPORTS Women's Underage League clubs represented - for three games in Norway. They will kick off against Hungary on Saturday, October 9th, followed closely by Bulgaria on Tuesday, October 12th, before finishing against host nation Norway on Friday, October 15th.
