Flanker Roberts made her Lightning debut as a teenager back in September 2023 as a replacement against Gloucester-Hartpury.

Her Premiership Women’s Rugby debut came in October 2024 against Bristol Bears, but a week later she suffered a knee injury against Trailfinders Women – and a subsequent setback on her return to action ended her Lightning participation that campaign, although she did return to appear for Loughborough University in their BUCS Super Rugby final.

A former England Under-20s player, Roberts lists Alton, Basingstoke and Harlequins amongst her former clubs and also represented Hampshire County at Under-18 level.
