Having made her senior debut in 2007, Fahey is now set to become just the fourth female player in Ireland's history to become a Centurion, following behind Emma Byrne (137), Áine O’Gorman (111) and Ciara Grant (105).
Galway native Fahey was presented with a special gold cap by FAI President Gerry McAnaney and Manager Vera Pauw at the team hotel in La Manga, Spain.
