She is a dedicated team player and has been rewarded for her outstanding talent at both club and league level.
Schultz’s success of winning a best and fairest in every junior grade continued in her senior career.
The 2010 season was particularly impressive when she won the 17 and Under league best and fairest, club best and fairest and A Grade runner-up club best and fairest.
Other achievements have included winning three club A Grade runner-up best and fairest and five best and fairest awards.
Schultz has represented the league at Country Championships as a junior and senior player.

Schultz is a passionate and dedicated club person who volunteers her time as an umpire, coach and is a past committee member.
She is currently the club’s Junior 1 coach and was an under 15s premiership coach of an undefeated side in 2017.
She will always put up her had to help around the club, no matter if it is cleaning the courts or selling raffle tickets.
