Held at Cardiff Arms Park, the free–to-attend, but ticketed, ‘send-off’ event promises to be a vibrant celebration of women’s rugby and an unforgettable opportunity for fans to meet their Wales heroes. Proudly supported by Vodafone, our Founding Principal Partner of WRU Women’s and Girls’ Rugby since 2022, the day will be packed with music, entertainment, food & drink, community activities, and exclusive meet & greets with the players. Belinda Moore, WRU Head of Women’s Rugby, says “This is a pivotal year for women’s rugby and a pivotal year for women’s rugby in Wales.

“The energy around this squad is incredible and this open training session is a special moment for the team to connect with the fans who inspire them every day. “We think seeing is believing. We want young girls across Wales to see what’s possible and feel they belong in this sport. “Events like this create memories, but they also create ambition. If even one girl walks away believing she will one day wear the red jersey, then we’ve done something truly special.” Mark Huckerby, Vodafone Head of Sponsorship, added, “Vodafone is incredibly proud to stand behind this women’s team. The growth and excitement surrounding women’s sport is palpable and events like this bring that message home. “This event is a brilliant way to bring fans and players together in celebration of everything that women’s rugby stands for – determination, unity, and inspiration. We’re excited to help create a day to remember.” Whilst tickets to the event are free, spaces are limited, so fans are encouraged to secure their place early and book here.

Whether you’re a lifelong supporter or new to the game, this is a rare opportunity to experience the energy of the team up close and be part of a growing movement behind women’s sport in Wales. #HerStory Event Details: Wales Women’s Official Team Send Off Location: Cardiff Arms Park.
