During this period she made 85 appearances for the Rachel Guy Sophie Taylor Hokeyroos scoring 30 goals.
Nicola Hammond Aisling Utri After the World Cup in 2014, Emily made the decision to retire from international competition as she felt that she had achieved Emily Hurtz Ashlee Wells everything she wanted and had become the best player that she possibly could. This allowed her to turn her focus to her Rachael Lynch studies and career as a nurse, which she is passionate about, whilst making the decision to relocate to Melbourne. Georgia Nanscawen (retired June 2018) Emily continued to play high level competition in Victoria and after a standout performance at the Australian Hockey League (AHL) tournament with the Victoria Vipers, Emily once again Training Venues made herself available for Hockeyroos selection, having turned down an initial offer shortly after the 2016 Olympics. State Netball and Hockey Centre Emily made her return for the Hockeyroos in the International VIS Gymnasium Festival of Hockey in Melbourne in November 2017 and was elevated into the Women’s National Senior Squad in 2018, however, she decided to remain in Melbourne to continue her career as a nurse, which Hockey Australia agreed to. Sponsor Partners Emily was selected for the 2018 Commonwealth Games and 2XU Hockey Australia helped the Hockeyroos secure a silver medal, before refocusing on a second World Cup in July in the United Kingdom.
