I'd imagine players that are on their club teams would prefer to stay and help their club out first and foremost. Was chatting to Raymond Foy before the last one and he turned down the call as he wanted to stay and help Harps to promotion

The FAI Colleges & Universities 20 Player squads have been announced by Colin Bell (also Senior Women's Manager) and Greg Yelverton.
http://www.fai.ie/ireland/news/world-university-games-ireland-selects-squads (FAI most likely Stephen Finn Comms Exec. also did the University/Club label for each player) Ireland Women's Squad Fixtures Ireland Men's Squad Fixtures A lot of first teamers so fair play to Player and Club for choosing the representative side over club (age old discussion). |

Once again the Coll & Uni. side present huge number of Domestic first team players in an All-Ireland representative side. Perception of gender equality for both squads. Prestige of Senior Womens International Manager Colin Bell also Coll & Uni Manger (like Sue Ronan before him).
For Football Fans in Ireland who want a Domestic Player dominated All-Ireland representative team with added Inclusion, there's both your teams. In Ireland the talent gap between best of Students and best Players domestically isn't very wide, we can have a discussion about the Colleges & University side representing domestic Irish Football. With a large Student population at Football-going age. In other places that influence Irish Football the talent gap is a lot wider and so because the discussion doesn't take place in these other places it doesn't influence some football fans in Ireland. But Ireland has this narrow talent gap between best of Student and best of Domestic player and it's possible for Irish Football Fans to have a discussion about the Coll & Uni side representing Domestic Football.

Womens Football after losing 1-0 to Canada, the result mexico v Canada ddn't go Ireland's way and they compete in the 9th-12th ranking matches. Because of 13 entries in Womens, Ireland are now scheduled for 2 more matches.
https://www.2017.taipei/home/detail/content/594da4e4-580e-4e13-8119-5252698cb594 Next Match: Sat Aug 26th Chinese Taipei v Ireland, Hsinchu City (ko 16:00, Irish time 09:30am) Mens Football UCD AFC Greg Sloggett joined the squad at the weekend, along with Daire O'Connor and Jay McClelland, Sloggett was one of three UCD AFC starters that beat Chines Taipei 2-1 in front of an enthusiastic home crowd. After Chinese Taipei went ahead from Chein Hsun Lin, Ireland scored the equaliser from Alan O'Sullivan and a late injury time winner from Joe Doyle. It wasn't enough for the quarters but IRL will still have three games in the ranking 9th-16th. Next Match: Fri 25th Aug., Ireland v South Africa, Fu Jen Univ Stadium, ko 16:00 Taipei, 09:30am Irish time.
