The Black Ferns XV squad has been confirmed for an upcoming fixture against the national Black Ferns team. Head coach Blair Baxter and his coaching staff announced a 25-player roster to prepare for the match scheduled for August 14 at Maidstone Sports Park in Upper Hutt, Wellington.

The squad includes players such as Taufa Bason and Sam Taylor, who have previously been named in wider Black Ferns squads. Coach Baxter noted that the fixture serves as an opportunity for players to experience a Test week environment and to build a foundation for the inaugural British & Irish Lions Women’s Series next year.
