Lauren Parkinson

Lauren’s career launched at 17 when she signed her first contract with the NSW Swifts, making her debut in 2016. After spending six years with the club – spanning three grand final campaigns and winning two premierships – Lauren made the move to across town rivals - the Giants - in 2022. After two seasons in orange and charcoal, Lauren had played over 60 games across both NSW clubs. In 2024, it was time for Lauren’s career to reach new heights, coming on board as an inaugural defender at the Melbourne Mavericks.
