Both Niamh Fahey and Heather Payne are unavailable for this squad due to Achilles injuries, while Chloe Mustaki, Tara O'Hanlon, and Jamie Finn are continuing their recovery from long-term injuries.

There is a first call-up for former Ireland WU19 midfielder Eva Mangan due to the 19-year-old impressing for Cork City this season in the SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division.
