Speaking about her appointment and the new contracts, McDarby said: “It is a great privilege to be appointed as the IRFU’s first Head of Women’s Performance and Pathways.

“I have worked across several important areas in the game and believe there is a huge growth opportunity for the Women’s game in Ireland. I am looking forward to working with all stakeholders to bring the Women’s game to the next level.

It is also pleasing that my appointment coincides with the formal announcement of contracts for up to 43 female players. This is a major step forward for Women’s rugby in Ireland.”
