The series will follow on from the Womens Under-20s Six Nations, which begin in Parma, Italy on 4 July.

This will prove a tough and demanding month for the players and will be a test of our resilience, but it is a challenge we are excited about, added Burgess.

We know we are going to learn a lot about the players and these games also provide an excellent opportunity for those players transitioning up this year from Under-18s.
