The squad secured maximum points from their two games on Saturday with a 5-0 victory over South East and a 9-0 win over Connacht. Goalscorers against South East were McMaster, Lauren Mulholland, Alana Doyle and a brace from Suzannah Brown.

Against Connacht, Rachel Burns, McMaster, Kerrie Burns, Rosie Henderson, Jane Kilpatrick, Jenny Morrow and a hat-trick from Ulster Elks forward Hannah Irwin sealed an emphatic success.

On Sunday, Ulster secured a point against Leinster to seal the Interpro title with a 2-2 draw.
