The Ireland Women’s Sevens team claimed fourth spot at the Sydney 7s tournament this weekend, their best ever finish on the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series circuit.

The side ticked off some ground-breaking achievements with their highest finish yet in a World Series tournament, Amee-Leigh Murphy Crowe’s nine tries putting her top of the try scoring charts, and captain Lucy Mulhall and Eve Higgins’ selection on the HSBC Sydney Sevens Dream Team alongside players from title winners New Zealand and Australia.

Of note too was Beibhinn Parsons’ try-scoring bow in an Ireland senior Sevens jersey, with the 17-year-old from Ballinasloe and Cork’s Emily Lane (20) both enjoying World Series debuts to remember. They have both come through the IRFU Under-18 Sevens pathway along with fellow 20-year-olds Anna McGann and Brittany Hogan, who also played their part in Ireland’s historic run in Sydney.
