She was also selected in the Australian side to compete at the World Youth Cup, making her a significant acquisition for the Firebirds.[5] Hinchliffe grew up a passionate supporter of the Firebirds, idolising fellow players Laura Geitz and Gabi Simpson.[6] She made her debut as a senior contracted player in the first round of the 2018 season.[6] Later that year she represented Australia in the Fast5 World Series, winning a bronze medal with the team.[2]
