Since 2011, Samantha has been player/coach with the University of Edinburgh’s women’s hockey team and has been the key to the club’s success during this period, which includes helping it become one of the top teams in the country, winning the BUCS Trophy (2013) and making the Scottish Cup final (2013) for the first time in the club’s history.
