Clark said: «We are absolutely delighted and having been there four years ago and won it, we are hoping to emulate that again in Division 1 of the Gil Burns County Cup. »It was my proudest coaching achievement, and all the girls are fired up and ready, we are just super excited about a fantastic day of rugby.

«It is very different being a coach to a player but I still feel the excitement, the heartbreak and the highs and the lows of the team. »It is massive, we know how strong Lancashire are and what a threat they are going to be. «They will bring it and there is nothing bigger than a final, especially at Twickenham, the home of rugby.

»We are coming down for the whole weekend and I am also commentating on Saturday, so I will basically be living there. «The girls are just super excited.» Lancashire are no strangers to the big occasion themselves and are preparing for their third final in ten years. Team
