Canada will face the 2016 Olympic silver medalists on April 6 in Trelleborg, Sweden before traveling to play the Olympic gold medalists on April 9 in Erfurt, Germany.
Labbé, a veteran of the Canada WNT, has recorded 18 clean sheets through her first 40 appearances with the team, including 34 starts between the posts.
Zadorsky has established herself as a reliable member of the Canadian defensive unit as well, starting 25 of 27 matches that she has appeared in with the team. Both Labbé and Zadorsky were members of the 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Canadian squad.
