APRIL 12, 2022 – Hurrell proud to be a swan and don the symbolic red and white Guernsey.
At just 20 years of age, Zoe Hurrell already has 10 seasons of AFL under her belt and a list of accolades to go with it.
Hurrell spent six seasons playing with her junior club Willoughby Mosman Swans, followed by a year with her senior club at Sydney University, before joining North Shore Bombers in 2020.
On top of club footy, Hurrell played for NSW/ACT and the Eastern Allies in 2018/2019. Shewas named in the ‘Team of the Year’ for AFL Sydney Women’s Premier Division, while also placing third for the rising star.
Hurrell is no stranger to the red and white, having played in the Under 19s QBE Sydney Swans Academy side last year.
“It’s so surreal, I’m really grateful to be given this opportunity and be part of such a great club,” Hurrell said.
“I started playing footy when I was 11, when youth girls footy came to Sydney. I went through the NSW/ACT pathway, played in the state teams and the Allies. I missed out in the draft when I was 18, and now finally, I’m here.
“As a player I’m quite versatile – I’ll happily play anywhere, but my strengths are definitely either end of the ground, especially half-back because I like reading the play.”
