Irish podcasters Charleen Murphy and Ellie Kelly go behind the scenes with the Irish Women's National Team

Irish podcasters of the popular show Hold My Drink and well known Instagram influencers Charleen Murphy and Ellie Kelly meet up with the Irish Women's National Team to go behind the scenes with the squad as well as giving the sport a go themselves. The girls get a training session, talk sports terms with defender Pearl Slattery and much more.

The show begins with the girls heading to Tolka Park which is home to Shelbourne Football Club to meet up with squad member Pearl Slattery. Taking with Pearl about the team, she says: "We're like a family. You give up so much and you miss out on so many things together. We're with each other three or four times a week and we socialise together as well so we really are a little family."

Speaking about her coaching career Pearl said: "I work in the FAI full time and I do some coaching on the side as when I finish playing that's what I want to go into to." Charleen and Ellie then take to the pitch to practise some drills with players Amanda McQuillan and Alex Kavanagh.
