WALES Women will kick off their 2025 World Cup campaign against Scotland in Salford.
Ioan Cunningham’s side start with what could well be a pivotal clash with the Scots, who they edged out in the group stages at the last tournament.
Wales take on Scotland at the Salford Community Stadium on Saturday, August 23 (kick-off 2.45pm) before then facing Canada, ranked second in the world, at the same venue seven days later (kick-off midday).
The Welsh women will expect to finish Pool B with a win against group minnows Fiji at Exeter’s Sandy Park on Saturday, September 6 (kick-off 2.45pm).
The runners up in the pool are likely to face hosts England in the quarter-finals at Bristol’s Ashton Gate.
