Profile

A bubbly and energetic personality, Healy was the regular ‘keeper while Jodie Fields was injured in 2009 and 2010. 

However, with Fields back, Healy will need her batting to do all the talking if she wants to press for a spot in the Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars top order, with the potential for her to fill the slot left at the top by the retirement of Shelley Nitschke. 

The niece of former Australian legend ‘keeper Ian Healy, Alyssa is an aggressive and attacking right-hand batter who can often be heard during the Channel Nine or ABC TV broadcast when she wears the player mic providing insightful commentary into the game. 

A face of the 2011-12 Commonwealth Bank Southern Stars Media Kit, Healy can also be found on Twitter @aHealy77.
