New Coach of New Wales, Sean Lynn urged his team to take up the challenge and the opportunity by facing powers of six female nations in England in front of a record crowd in Cardiff.

Lynn, appointed before this female campaign of the Six Nations, will take charge of the soil at home for the first time after the opening of Wales with a close defeat against Scotland in Edinburgh.

The task is powerful for the hosts while England comes in town after losing only once during their last 52 tests, with a victory probably out of reach for the local team.

Wales can, however, count on the support of a strong crowd at the principality stadium with the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) Hope to sell more than 20,000 tickets, a record for a Welsh women’s team event in Wales.

And Lynn encouraged his team to savor the opportunity to test themselves against the reigning champions.

“When you grow up, it is a question against England and playing in the Principality with a record crowd, it is something we are really proud of,” said Lynn, who has made two changes to his starting team.

“We are so excited and that’s what these girls deserve, playing the principality and having 18,000 [tickets sold]. I hope we will arrive at the 20,000 mark.

“We have put small challenges for ourselves, what we want to remove it, I just want to make sure that we can put England in a difficult place and see how they react. Sport is a question of pressure. Defensively, we must be on the point, the mistakes will occur, but it is this fight that I want to see girls. ”

Aldcroft supported Lynn to provoke a turnaround while he seeks to transform the fortune of Wales after a wooden spoon in the tournament of last year.

“I wish him the absolute good luck,” said the captain of England before the tournament. “He was incredible for us in Gloucester-Hartpury with the culture he created.

“If he can go doing this with Wales, I think that is something they really need in recent years. When you have a good culture, that’s when you are also starting to see performance in the field.”
