Ireland's Saoirse Noonan with fans after the game at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
The home of Cork GAA will welcome the girls in green back to the grounds once more as it announced that the World Cup qualifier is to be played Leeside.
Ireland’s women’s team will return to Páirc Uí Chaoimh for the World Cup qualifier against Netherlands on Friday, June 5.
Meetings of An Coiste Bainistíochta and Ard Chomhairle took place on Friday and Saturday respectively, with the latter summit approving a proposal by Cork GAA to stage the game at the venue.
In 2024, the Cork grounds hosted the European Championship qualifier win over the French in July.
Goals from Denise O’Sullivan, Julie-Ann Russell, and Anna Patten lead an Ireland side managed by Eileen Gleeson to a 3-1 win.
This first-ever competitive match at the venue attracted 18,399 to Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
Last summer, Cork native Saoirse Noonan was on target in her home turf as the Republic of Ireland defeated Slovenia at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh in the UEFA Women’s Nations League in front of 9,433 spectators.
