Bio
Having first tried wheelchair basketball at a local taster day, Amy became hooked on the sport after watching a professional match where she fell in love with the speed, competitiveness and aggression of the game.
After making her international debut at the 2010 BT Paralympic World Cup, Amy has gone on to become a key member of the Great Britain Women’s squad, including at both London 2012 and Rio 2016.
In London, Amy topped the points scoring in two of Great Britain’s games, before, four years later, helping the team to achieve the highest ever finish by a GB women’s team at the Rio Paralympic Games when they secured fourth place.
Amy has four European bronze medals to her name, and was part of the GB Women’s teams that made history, claiming silver medals at both the 2018 World Championships and 2019 European Championships.
In addition to her senior international achievements, the Norwich native played a crucial role in Great Britain’s silver medal successes at the 2013 and 2014 U25 European Championships. Then, building upon this experience and success, in 2015 Amy co-captained the GB Women’s U25 Team with Laurie Williams to the title of U25 World Champions in Beijing, China.
