Career

[edit | edit source]

Roberts started at Swedish club IK Sävehof, where she won the Swedish championship 6 times, every season between her debut in 2009 and 2014.

In 2014 she switched to Danish club TTH Holstebro. Here she played with her former teammates Linn Blohm and Nathalie Hagman. After two seasons in Denmark, her club was in economic trouble and could not extend her contract, and therefore she returned to her old club, IK Sävehof.[7]

In 2017 she joined Hungarian side Érd HC for a single season, before joining Danish club Randers HK. In 2020 she returned to Sweden for a third stint at IK Sävehof.

From 2022 to 2025 she was at Norwegian club Vipers Kristiansand, where she won the EHF Champions League 2022/2023. She left following the bankruptcy of the club.[8] Afterwards she joined Danish side Ikast Håndbold.[9]
