The team will play back-to-back matches at Hive Stadium before they head off to South Africa for WXV2.

What they said

Head Coach Bryan Easson said: “Hive Stadium is somewhere we love going to. We got a record crowd against England this year, the noise that they bring is exceptional and the players love it.

“They love that walk from the changing room onto the pitch, but the most important thing is the noise they get from supporters when they’re on the pitch.

“We’re looking forward to getting out in front of them on Friday night and putting in a performance. We’ve been working hard over the summer, just to put it in front of the supporters on Friday night will be a really enjoyable experience.”
