Courtney Bruce

Courtney Bruce is one of Australia’s premier defenders, renowned for her athleticism, smarts and ability to dominate contests. Her outstanding 2021 season, which included a premiership with Fever, saw her become the first defender in a decade to claim the prestigious Liz Ellis Diamond.

Bruce was named in the Diamonds’ squad for the first time in late 2016, making her debut during the 2017 International Quad Series. With a big reach and a spooky ability to anticipate passing patterns, she’s now one of the first players selected in every Diamonds squad.
