Head Coach Philip Doyle said: “I am excited to get to Spain and get this busy year underway. We had a camp at the start of January, which was a very physical, tough camp for the players. They were all worked extremely hard and all players were able to keep their work rate up and really push themselves.”

Spain are currently ranked 9th in the world, Scotland are 11th having moved up one following their series win in South Africa, and are the reigning Rugby Europe Women’s Champions. If they retain this title they will join Scotland, Ireland and Italy in the Rugby World Cup qualifying tournament next September.

All focus will turn to the Women’s Six Nations after the full-time whistle blows in Spain. Following an opening test away to Ireland to kick things off for Scotland, they welcome defending Grand Slam champions England to Scotstoun in Round 2 on Sunday 9 February.

Their other home match will also be at Scotstoun in a big Saturday night fixture against France on Saturday 7 March.
