Niamh Briggs makes just her second appearance for the Ireland Rugby Sevens this weekend, as she aims to help Anthony Eddy's side qualify for the Olympics.
The side, captained by Lucy Mulhall, will face China, Portugal and Trinidad and Tobago in the tournament's Group C. The winner of the tournament will be rewarded with the one Olympic place up for grabs.
There will be 16 teams competing for the solitary Olympic spot and Eddy has drawn on all the experience he can by naming players who competed on the World Rugby Women’s Sevens Series.
"The tournament this weekend is something we’ve been building towards all season," Eddy said.
"With both Olympic Qualification and a place as a core team on next season’s World Series, we are very much aware of what is at stake.
"The players have gained great experience from being on the World Series this year and understand what is required from them in UCD this weekend so they are looking forward to competing in front of a home crowd and hopefully we can get a good result."
Ireland's first game on Saturday is against Trinidad & Tobago at 12.34pm, they will then face Portugal at 3.40pm and play China in their final Pool C game at 6.48pm.
