In Cape Town, Ireland’s indoor women’s hockey team will face the South African women’s team in a six-match SPAR series. In recent years, the two sides have developed a fantastic rivalry, having played 11 tests over two test series, including the series in Dublin in January.
Ireland defeated South Africa in Dublin before losing the series, and they have chosen a squad with the goal of growing on the indoor courts. The six games are as follows;
- Ireland v South Africa – 15:00 – 15nd December
- Ireland v South Africa – 17:00 – 16th December
- Ireland v South Africa – 17:00 – 17th December
