Courtney Brosnan
Courtney Brosnan is Pauw's favoured No 1 and the Everton shot-stopper has been the catalyst for a phenomenal run of form for the Girls in Green in recent times. In Ireland's crucial World Cup qualifier against Scotland, Brosnan saved a 13th-minute penalty from Caroline Weir, before Amber Barrett won the tie.
Prior to facing the reigning World Cup champions USA in April, Brosnan had not conceded an international goal since April 2022 - an outstanding record for a keeper on form. This run, which spanned more than 650 minutes of football, came to an end against the Americans but it acted as only a reminder of the significant progress Ireland have made.
Grace Moloney
As Reading's first-choice keeper - having been at the club since she was nine-years-old - Grace Moloney is one of the 'keepers fighting for the No 1 jersey.
If you need a 'keeper who keeps their cool in a penalty shootout, step up Moloney. This season, her heroics allowed Reading to progress in the Women's FA Cup after penalty success against Leicester.
Born and raised in Slough, near Reading, she grew up dreaming of representing Ireland with her dad always kitting her out in the latest country kits.
Megan Walsh
Megan Walsh oozes experience. She holds the impressive accolade of making the most saves in the WSL. As the busiest goalkeeper in WSL history, she is a safe back-up option for Pauw.
In 2021, not only did Brighton cause an upset for reigning champions Chelsea (their first defeat in two years) but Walsh wrote a new piece of history in that game, reaching 500 saves in the WSL. While the 28-year-old is relatively untested in Ireland's senior side, her potential on the international stage can only be assumed to be huge.
Walsh is on the move this summer, having left Brighton and Hove Albion as their first-choice keeper at the end of her contract.
Diane Caldwell
Calm and collected, Diane Caldwell has worldwide football experience, with periods in the United States, Iceland, Germany, Ireland and England.
She also became the first Irishwoman to play for Manchester United and is a lifelong fan of the club.
Now at Reading, Caldwell brings a commanding presence in both defence and midfield and could earn her 100th cap at this World Cup.
Louise Quinn
Once described as a "tiger" by her Ireland manager, Louise Quinn brings experience and reliability, having started each and every one of Birmingham's 29 fixtures this season.
With set-pieces a pivotal component in Ireland's attack, keep an eye out for Quinn's aerial performance in the box this summer.
Along with her strong leadership qualities, Quinn is a key piece in Pauw's team dynamic and cohesion.
Heather Payne
Florida State University star Heather Payne has led the line for Ireland, but often plays in her more natural position of right wing-back.
When she attacks, she has pace and endless energy and could also provide vital inside information. At club level, she shares a dressing room with players from all over the world, including Australia, China and Nigeria.
Payne has just one Ireland goal to her name, but she is a firm favourite due to her hard work and ability to work the channels incessantly.
Aine O'Gorman
Aine O'Gorman is one of Ireland's most celebrated footballers, having earned over 100 caps.
She was only 16 years old when she broke into the senior team in 2006 and she maintained a place all the way through to her international retirement in 2018.
O'Gorman reversed that decision in 2020 to help Ireland reach their first major tournament and will now play for her country at a maiden Women's World Cup.
The Shamrock Rovers captain is a versatile player - who played most of her career as a striker - and was the only home-based starter in the team that beat Scotland 1-0 to reach the finals in Australia and New Zealand.
Claire O'Riordan
Claire O'Riordan has been an Ireland international since 2016, but made her first competitive start in three years during a crucial win against Slovakia last September, having been sidelined due to a horrific ankle break the year before.
She scored in Celtic's Women's Scottish Cup final win over Rangers last season to retain the trophy at Hampden Park and will be hoping to continue her success this summer.
Niamh Fahey
Niamh Fahey is a mainstay in Pauw's defence and back in the fold after recovering from a persistent injury that kept her out for four months last season.
The Liverpool captain is a versatile player who can play across the back four and in midfield.
With spells at Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool, Fahey is no stranger to playing on the big stage. From winning three WSL titles to earning promotion with Liverpool, she has 16 winners' medals already.
Izzy Atkinson
21-year-old Izzy Atkinson won her first Ireland cap at the age of 16 and has added a few more games to her tally in the last few years. She is now on her way to her first major tournament.
The winger, who signed for West Ham in July 2022, can also play at left-back and has Champions League experience, playing in the competition during her year with Celtic.
Katie McCabe
The Ireland captain and poster girl of the tournament, Katie McCabe will be leading the Girls in Green out in their first World Cup this summer. She is the glue that keeps the team together, both on and off the pitch.
Known for her fiery temperament, McCabe stepped up as captain for Arsenal this season after Kim Little and vice-captain Leah Williamson were among the club's many injuries.
She is also one of the members of Ireland's 'coffee club', with a host of players visiting the local coffee shop to set up their day on camp. McCabe says her go-to order is a flat white.
She was awarded WSL Goal of the Season for a thunderous strike against Manchester City, which came just days after she picked up a bruised bone in the Champions League against Bayern Munich - a sight that left all Ireland fans worried back in April.
As the only WSL player to make the Champions League team of the season, McCabe will be pivotal in keeping the squad focused on their first foray into a major tournament.
Denise O'Sullivan
Naturally gifted and an incredible playmaker, midfield maestro Denise O'Sullivan represents one of Ireland's biggest threats on the opposition goal.
The American-based box-to-box star is referred to as a 'junkyard' player by her coach due to her aggression.
Along with McCabe, arguably no other player did more to ensure Ireland finally reached the World Cup. The pair were by far the country's most influential players going forward in the qualifying campaign, with McCabe (7) and O'Sullivan (6) responsible for exactly half of the team's 26 goals.
Having recently been named captain of North Carolina Courage in the NWSL, she is an important cog in Ireland's starting XI, dictating the pace and tempo of the game.
Pauw has previously described O'Sullivan as one of the best midfielders in the world. Technically excellent with an immense work rate, she covers every blade of grass.
Megan Connolly
An attack-minded midfielder with superb technique, Megan Connolly's free-kicks have proved pivotal in her international career. The Brighton captain was one of five players to leave the club at the end of the season after a five-year stint.
Connolly was pivotal in Ireland's qualification campaign, scoring one of the goals in a 2-1 victory over Finland, and setting up the goal in the return game with her iconic free-kick - despite playing the game with broken ribs.
Ruesha Littlejohn
The joker of the group, Ruesha Littlejohn is a pivotal component to Ireland's success this summer. Both on and off the pitch, she is part of the team's core and a huge personality in the squad.
After a broken foot left her on the sidelines for Ireland's historic qualification against Scotland, Littlejohn will relish pulling on the green jersey this summer as a quick and deadly finisher.
Aside from football, she's been kept busy by a budding vlogging career, her YouTube channel gaining 13,000 subscribers since launching.
Lucy Quinn
With the opening game of the World Cup campaign against Australia, who better to know what it is like scoring against them than Lucy Quinn?
On her debut in 2021, her free-kick took a deflection to open the scoring in a famous win against the Matildas.
She can be deployed in midfield or part of the forward line and is often keen to take a shot, resulting in her scoring some important goals.
She won Birmingham's goal of the season award with her strike against Sheffield United last season and you could say it was deja-vu for Quinn - she was awarded the same accolade for her memorable strike that beat Chelsea 3-2 in 2019.
Lily Agg
Lily Agg will go down in the history books as the player who secured a first-ever World Cup play-off for Ireland with their singular goal in their 1-0 win against Finland. She came off the bench to head in Connolly's free-kick.
Agg was pivotal in London City Lionesses' push for promotion last season. Despite just missing out, the midfielder has been with the club since the very beginning when they were set up as a breakaway club from Millwall Lionesses in 2019.
There was slight concern over her fitness after tearing ankle ligaments in late March, but Agg will bring not only experience but a proven track record of stepping up in the big moments.
Ciara Grant
Ciara Grant has made the leap from doctor to footballer. She fell out of the game in 2015 to focus on her medical studies, but is back and one of the key members of the squad.
Having committed to another season at Hearts in the Scottish Women's Premier League, Grant is a leader both on and off the pitch. She scored four goals as Hearts finished fourth, adding three assists for the Tynecastle outfit.
Sinead Farrelly
American-born Sinead Farrelly had not been involved in football for almost eight years after coming out as a whistleblower into the US abuse scandal.
But she made her debut for Ireland in April and Pauw has hailed her as the player the squad had been missing, single-handedly transforming the team's tactical approach.
Sharp and skilful, Farrelly is a breath of fresh air in Ireland's midfield unit. Having played with the USA up to U23 level before switching allegiance, she could provide vital intel if Ireland were to come up against them this summer.
Amber Barrett
The Hero of Hampden and a buzzing personality in the squad, Barrett brings an endless supply of positivity to the Ireland squad.
Her name is in the history books after her goal confirmed Ireland's place at the 2023 World Cup and their first-ever major tournament. Rather than celebrate her glory, Barrett used the life-changing moment to pay tribute to Creeslough and the 10 victims that had died in the horrific explosion in the days before the match in October.
The only Irish international in the Women's Bundesliga, Barrett has been picked despite a testing season at club level. Her club Turbine Potsdam were relegated, being one of only two sides in the German top flight not attached to a men's club.
Despite this, she has a proven track record of delivering a goal when it counts. Barrett will bring bundles of positivity with hopefully more moments of magic that will be written into Ireland's history books.
Kyra Carusa
Speaking to US-born Kyra Carusa, you cannot help but have a smile on your face. A bright and bubbly player, she also says she's the loudest on the pitch, but she has certainly earned her voice. As one of only a few Irish players with Champions League experience, her football CV is impressive.
She is a natural leader with experience as captain of two-time Danish champions and Champions League regulars HB Koge. Carusa recorded 43 goal contributions (30 goals, 13 assists) in 57 top-flight appearances for HB Koge and was the 2022 Elitedivisionen Most-Valuable Player.
She now plays for the London City Lionesses, having joined the Championship side in February.
Abbie Larkin
As the youngest member of the squad, teenager sensation Abbie Larkin made her international debut at just 16 - but not after getting her parents' permission to miss school for the game.
Larkin shines as one of Shamrock Rovers' playmakers, which has plenty of experience with the likes of O'Gorman and Savannah McCarthy to name a few.
Making valuable runs on the wing, Larkin's vision and positioning are key to her play. The teenager is tipped as one of the stars of the future, but already is a regular starter and holding her own in an experienced squad.
A wise head on young shoulders, Larkin has also started her coaching badges resulting in incredible football intelligence and hold-up play.
Marissa Sheva
A rocket on the wing, Marissa Sheva is a new addition to Pauw's squad, and she has come in firing. The US-born forward was a track and field star, who excelled in the 3,000m steeplechase.
The Penn State graduate forward impressed in the double header against the USA, playing 160 minutes. She completed 100 per cent of her dribbles, won nine duels, six interceptions and 11 recoveries, racking up some impressive numbers.
What is the World Cup schedule?
