Early life
Whyman is of Indigenous Australian heritage, with ancestry from the Wiradjuri and Yorta Yorta peoples.[2] Whyman grew up in Wagga Wagga before moving to Canberra and later Sydney, where she attended Westfields Sports High School.[3] She travelled from Wagga Wagga to both Sydney and Canberra regularly until late 2013 when she moved to the Australian Capital Territory.[4]
Playing career
Club
Whyman's first club in Sydney was Macarthur Rams, joining the club in 2013 whilst still living in Wagga Wagga.[5]
In August 2015, Whyman signed to play for Western Sydney Wanderers in the 2015–16 W-League,[6] and made seven appearances in her debut season.[7] She suffered a torn thigh in a game against Newcastle Jets, causing her to miss much of the season.[8]
International
Whyman was first called up to the Australian under-17 team in 2013 for the 2013 AFC U-16 Women's Championship, aged thirteen.[9]
She made her debut for Australia under-20 in a 2–0 win over Uzbekistan in the group stage of the 2015 AFC U-19 Women's Championship.[10]
She was subsequently selected in a squad for the Senior national team who would be playing two friendlies against France and England in October 2018.[11]
