It was not your average squad announcement, with Rhian Wilkinson scaling Yr Wyddfa this morning to reveal the names of the players who will represent Wales in Switzerland this summer.

Having climbed Wales' biggest mountain, Wilkinson now turns attention to the three peaks which await in Euro 2025 Group D - the Netherlands, France and England.

There are just 16 days to go until Wales start their campaign against the Dutch.

We'll bring you all the build-up to the tournament via the BBC Sport Wales website and our social media channels, plus BBC television and radio of course.

But for the time being, thanks for joining us this morning.

Roll on Switzerland!

So the 23 chosen ones have been identified as Wales switch their focus to continuing their preparations for Euro 2025, with a training camp in Portugal to come next.

Before we bid you farewell, a reminder that all three episodes of our Iconic: The Rise of the Women in Red series are available now.

Wales' most-capped player Jess Fishlock takes us through the journey of the team, and it's fair to say, it's some story.

You can listen to all three episodes here.

There are no real surprises in the squad. I think Rhian Wilkinson has gone with experience which is very wise, we need all the experience we can get.

We know what we are capable of doing and we have to go out and enjoy it.

I think Rhian has definitely rewarded the players that have contributed in the last 18 months, and I think that's fair.

I'm super excited for Switzerland, let's go Cymru!

And as part of National Thank a Teacher Day, external this week, Bristol City's Ella Powell - who is another of those who made the squad - spoke to BBC Bitesize about the important role played by teachers at the beginning of her career.

Elise Hughes, Josie Green and Lily Woodham will be smiling today, having made Rhian Wilkinson's 23 for Switzerland.

BBC Newsround caught up with the Wales trio before the squad announcement to get their thoughts on the tournament.

There are some similar sentiments from Hannah Cain, who has also described Euro 2025 selection as the "proudest moment" of her life.

"Can't wait to represent my country in our first ever major tournament," the Leicester forward added on social media.

"The greatest honour. Cymru am byth."

There is more reaction from some Wales players on social media, following the squad announcement.

"Proudest moment of my life," Gemma Evans has posted.

"Dreams do come true."

Whether it's women's football or men's football, the Red Wall get out there and make themselves heard.

There's going to be thousands of Wales fans out there in Switzerland.

They will make themselves heard and make themselves seen.

Wales are one of 16 teams will compete at the Euros, so there is plenty of football to watch this summer.

Wales will be hoping to emulate Chris Coleman's class of 2016, who were unfancied at the outset having ended a long wait to reach a tournament and then went all the way to the semi-finals in France.

Could Rhian Wilkinson's players do something similar? It's a big ask, but you never know in football...

For the time being, the full focus will be on the group stages.

But, for the dreamers among us, here are the full fixture dates, right the way up to the final.

Group stage Matchday 1: 2–5 July

Group stage Matchday 2: 6–9 July

Group stage Matchday 3: 10–13 July

Quarter-finals: 16–19 July

Semi-finals: 22–23 July

Final: 27 July

As well as the 23 players, Rhiannon Roberts has revealed, there will be a teddy on the plane to Switzerland.

The defender's new teddy has also scaled Yr Wyddfa this morning.

"My nain (grandmother) got me a little mascot teddy to take me on tour to the Euros - with the number five stitched on the back," Roberts said.

"So I need to get a picture on the summit with my mascot!"

Rhiannon Roberts is also at Yr Wyddfa and speaking to the BBC.

She has echoed Rhian Wilkinson by hailing the blend of players in the 23-strong party heading to Euro 2025.

"We've got a really good group of more experienced players and then the younger players," the defender said.

"I think, together, as a whole, we've got a really good togetherness, a good mix and a good culture.

"I think everyone's just looking forward to the journey."

If you haven't heard it already, the BBC's Iconic: The Rise of the Women in Red series makes for essential listening ahead of this summer's Euros in Switzerland.

And on 3 July, we have Euro 2025: Together Stronger, which will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.

The one-hour programme tells the extraordinary journey of Welsh women’s football, culminating in their historic qualification for Uefa Women’s Euro 2025.

There has been no sneak preview of that I can tell you about, but it should be a belter.

Here is some more from Olivia Clark, who says Wales are not thinking about their group game against England on 13 July yet.

The first assignment for Wales is the Netherlands on 5 July, before another big test against France four days later.

"I think we're genuinely just thinking about the first game," Clark said.

"We know we've got a tough group but we wouldn't want it any other way.

"We're going to a major tournament for the first time so why not do it against the best?

"I think we'll just think about the first game. We've got a camp next week and then all eyes on the first game against the Netherlands."

Olivia Clark is at the summit of Yr Wyddfa and is speaking to BBC Sport.

"It's crazy how quickly it's come around. We qualified six months ago," the goalkeeper said.

"To be here, this has really made it sink in a little bit.

"When we're there [in Switzerland], I think that's when it'll really hit us."

Ceri Holland has also reacted on social media this morning following her inclusion in the Wales squad.

"Never stop dreaming," the Liverpool player said.

"Selected to represent Cymru in our first major tournament. July here we come."

Sophie Ingle has given some brief - but poignant - reaction to being included in the squad for Euro 2025.

"My people who helped me through this tough journey, I owe you everything," the former Wales captain wrote on social media.

Wales will be the underdogs at the Euros and maybe that can play to their advantage.

There are no expectations outside of that group but they will carry that pressure into the tournament.

As soon as they break from the anthems and go to kick-off, I think they'll be in full game mode and block out all the noise that surrounds them.

Thankfully, it's been a glorious morning in north Wales.

Here are a few snaps from the summit of Yr Wyddfa.

In Wales we have around 100,000 boys playing football and around 20,000 girls.

When I was in school football wasn't an option, but that is changing now.

When you go to schools young girls are given the opportunity to play football. It is changing.
