The day when Irelands most successful Women’s Teams select & put out their best ‘Team Sprint’ or ‘Team Pursuit’ to battle for the coveted Elite Champions of Ireland Jersey.
‘Weston Homes-Torelli-Cayman’ have entered a very strong Team that should be able to defend their very first National Team Pursuit title won last year year. Sundrive Track Team have named two Teams, with their A Team having the experience to regain the title lost to Torelli in 2020.
Arcane Women’s Team go in as top seed in the Team Sprint , however they are without both medallists from the 2020 event. The race is a three woman event for the first time at an Irish Nationals, and with Nikki Taggart having moved to a new UCD Sprint Selection , they will be the strong favourites to take Gold.
