The Dungarvan RFC U12 girls team will play at halftime at the Ireland Tik Tok Women's Six Nations game this afternoon at Musgrave Park.

Greg McWilliams' side welcome Italy to Cork for their third outing in the tournament with both teams looking for their first points of the campaign.

The Dungarvan girls started rugby last year under the Dungarvan Give It A Try (GIAT) campaign for girls to try rugby. The U12s are coached by Jillian Hayes and Meg Fitzgerald.

Dungarvan RFC is where current Ireland women's assistant coach Niamh Briggs cut her teeth in rugby before moving to Clonmel, then UL Boh's, and ultimately Munster.
