Saints head coach Ian MacCallum said: “Training in Hungary is incredibly challenging as we will be competing against the local fully professional womens team ZF Eger.”

St Andrews’ season starts on September 22 when they take on old rivals Edinburgh in the 2018 Kingdom v Capital Varsity Match. The match takes place at New Olympia pool in Dundee at 10.30am.
