No jerseys or training | Playing in front of 20 people | Marking 50 years of Ireland's WNT

May 13th marks the first competitive international of the Irish women's national team and to mark the occasion the FAI are giving the women involved official caps.    To mark the occasion, Kathleen McNamee went to chat to some of the women who played with the team in those first games in 1973. Nora McHugh from Galway who speaks first captained the side while Kathleen Ramsbottom couldn't make the first game as she wasn't allowed time off work but was there for the iconic match vs. France. The final speaker is Breda Hanlon who says she didn't even have a training session with the squad before the first game.    Football with @SkyIreland
