Early life and education

Career

[edit | edit source]In 2021, Alexander was named in the England U–21 for the FIH Junior World Cup in Potchefstroom.[5] The competition was later postponed to 2022, with Alexander retaining her place in the squad.[6][7] At the delayed event, she broke her hand in the opening match against South Africa, resulting in her absence for the remainder of the tournament.[8] The team went on to win England's first ever bronze medal.[9][10][11][12]
Alexander was named captain of the national junior team in 2023, and led the team to a fourth-place finish at her second FIH Junior World Cup held in Santiago.[8][9]
At the 2024 EuroHockey U21 Championship in Terrassa, Alexander made her final appearance for the national junior team in a bronze medal triumph over Germany.[13]
Senior national squad
[edit | edit source]Following the 2024 Summer Olympics, a restructured England squad was announced, including Alexander.[14][15] She made her senior international debut in December during a match against China during the Hangzhou leg of season six of the FIH Pro League.[9]
