Ireland To Wear White During Their Six Nations Match Away To Wales

The change is part of new regulations to help supporters that are impacted by colour blindness

Ireland will wear white shirts during their Six Nations match away to Wales later this month.

The change is part of new regulations to help supporters that are impacted by colour blindness.

Ireland have traditionally worn their green home jerseys for trips to Cardiff but the combination of red, worn by Wales, and green is a particular problem for people with colour vision.

The Welsh Rugby Union faced criticism during last year's championship when they declined to switch to their alternative black jerseys for the reverse fixture in Dublin.
