Player Profile – Emily Brosnan

Emily in the 2016 Holland Cup Final against Valley

HKFC Hockey team: Ladies’ As

Position: Anywhere that’s not on the right. 

How long have you been playing, and where did you start: I got poached from playing football for the illustrious Stevenage Borough FC when I was 12. I followed in the footsteps of HKFC’s Claire Watson, making my way from Letchworth HC to Hong Kong via various national league sides – you could say Claire’s been my inspiration.

How long have you played at HKFC: Coming up to 3 years

What’s been your HKFC hockey highlight: Pat losing her passport on our New Zealand tour. It voids all of the items I lose on a weekly basis.

What’s been your overall hockey career highlight: Generally just being able to play again following my leg nearly getting the chop 

Favourite thing about playing for HKFC: Sophie Lindsay’s cabaret performances.

Tell us something about yourself you don’t think other people would know: Butterflies and moths make me feel physically sick
