Their next fixture is this Saturday, 4th February, as they host The Thistles at Kingspan Stadium.
Five Ulster Women were named in the match day squad by Head Coach Greg McWilliams for last Sunday's opening fixture of the Celtic Challenge.
Maeve Liston started at full-back with Kelly McCormill at inside centre, while Sadhbh McGrath, India Daley and Ella Durkan were among the replacements.
First half tries from Ailsa Hughes, Emma Hooban and a brace from Ella Roberts gave the Irish side a 22-7 lead at half-time.
The Welsh side produced a spirited 2nd half comeback and at 19-22 Ireland needed an Aoife Dalton score to extend their lead and secure a first Celtic Challenge win.
