Grace Parsons

Cricket was Grace’s first love and it continues to be an ever evolving part of her life. She has proven herself as an excellent leg spin bowler, being highly impactful in the teams she represents. Grace is known for her wicket taking ability and is someone her teammates can rely on, both on and off the field. At the age of 18, Grace made her debut for the QLD Fire.

During COVID however, Grace was unable to play for 12 months due to border closures, but once she was able to return to her club in the QLD Premier Cricket League, she was invited to train with the Fire Squad in March 2022. From there, Grace continued to excel and quickly cemented her spot in the Fire line up, taking 4 wickets on debut, being named as the 2022/23 Fire Player of the Year and was named in the WNCL Team of the Year in the 2023/24 season.

Grace strives to continue improving and training to be the best cricketer she can be for whichever team she is representing, with the ultimate goal of playing for Australian. She is well on the way to achieving this goal, being named in the Australia A team to face India in 2024. Off the field, she hopes to utilise her Education degree to work within the community developing young cricketers and assisting them in achieving their dreams.
