Tia Hinds

Tia Hinds, nicknamed "Dolly", grew up in Sydney playing for Maroubra Magic Rugby as a teenager.

A main goal-kicker in the Aussie 7s squad, Hinds learned to kick the ball while playing AFL in her early years while she was also an active touch footballer.

Hinds was part of the Tokyo Olympic campaign in 2021, where the side finished fifth, and later enjoyed success in Birmingham with a gold medal at the Commonwealth games.

In the 2023/2024 season, Hinds finished fourth overall with the most goals kicked (44) in the world series.

Hinds studies criminology away from her Rugby commitments.
