The last meeting between the two teams was at Spooky Nook Sports in late May 2015. The three-series format filled stands in record time with thrilling end line to end line play. Team USA edged out Ireland with a clean sweep. Looking to turn the table, Ireland will be on the hunt to rewrite the storyline.  

This series serves as the final round of preparation for the United States before heading into a stacked summer of key international games. The USWNT treks to Johannesburg, South Africa for FIH’s Hockey World League Semifinals in July, a FIH World Cup qualifier. This event is quickly followed by the all-important and highly-anticipated Pan American Cup in Lancaster, Pa. in August, another FIH World Cup qualifier and a Pan American Games invite.
