Natarlia grew up in a hockey playing family in Townsville, but she was 10 years old before she started playing. Pretty soon it became clear that she had a real talent for the sport.

Rising up the ranks in her local club, Natarlia was recently selected to join the Australian Country Team. 

With her first overseas hockey tour later this year, Natarlia tells Kendi Burness-Cowan about her passion for women’s hockey.
