Wales captain Kate Williams expresses excitement about the team's new chapter under refreshed coaching staff. After winning just one of 10 Tests last year and dropping to 12th in world rankings, the team welcomes new coaches Tyrone Holmes, Ashley Beck, and Steve Salvin alongside fresh faces in the squad.

The Welsh side faces Scotland in their Six Nations opener at Principality Stadium on April 11, a match Williams acknowledges as one of their biggest rivalries. Wales previously dominated Celtic clashes but has struggled recently, including a World Cup defeat, creating motivation to "write some wrongs" this season.

Wales' Six Nations campaign continues with France at Cardiff Arms Park, followed by a trip to reigning champions England at Ashton Gate. After facing Ireland in Belfast, they conclude against Italy on May 17. Williams emphasizes the team's focus on becoming consistent 80-minute performers rather than teams that "drop-offs" during matches.
