Background
Born in Wairoa, Bartlett played sevens rugby, basketball and touch football before taking up rugby league with the Richmond Roses in 2016.[1]
Playing career
In 2018, Bartlett underwent double shoulder reconstruction surgery, missing the entire season. She had dislocated her shoulders 16 teams before undergoing surgery.[2][3]
On 22 June 2019, she made her debut for New Zealand, starting on the wing and scoring a try in a 46–8 win over Samoa.[4] In September 2019, she joined the New Zealand Warriors NRL Women's Premiership team. In Round 1 of the 2019 NRL Women's season, she made her debut for the Warriors in a 16–12 win over the Sydney Roosters.[5]
On 19 October 2019, she came off the bench in New Zealand's 17–15 2019 Rugby League World Cup 9s final win over Australia.[6]
In September 2020, Bartlett was one of five New Zealand-based Warriors' players to travel to Australia to play in the 2020 NRL Women's premiership. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the players had to quarantine for 14 days on entering Australia and 14 days on return to New Zealand when the season was completed.[7]
In early 2022, Bartlett played in six of seven matches for the St. George Illawarra Dragons in the postponed 2021 NRL Women's season, including the Grand Final on 10 April 2022.[8][9][10]
In early June, the Gold Coast Titans announced that Bartlett had signed to play for the club in the 2022 NRL Women's season.[11]
In October she was selected for the New Zealand squad at the delayed 2021 Women's Rugby League World Cup in England.[12]
