She graduated from the Dornbirn Sports High School, where she graduated in 2015 .

After Elisa Hämmerle was already very successful in national competitions as a 14-year-old junior gymnast (in 2010 she won the national championship all-around competition for juniors by more than three points), she qualified for the first edition of youth at the 2010 Junior European Championship -Olympia . She reached the all- around final of the best 18 and was the sixth best European in 12th place. At the European Championships in Moscow in 2013 , she qualified for the all- around final of the best 24 gymnasts , as did Upper Austrian Lisa Ecker, and came in 23rd after two falls on the bar . Only once before ( Carina Hasenöhrl 2005) had Austrian gymnasts reached a final qualification. Until 2016, Elisa Hämmerle was at four European and four world championships.

As a legionnaire in the German Turn-Bundesliga , she and her team from Eintracht Frankfurt made it up from the second to the first division in 2015.

One of Elisa Hämmerle's career goals was to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio . Austria had a starting place (quota place) that was allocated at the Olympic Test Event in Rio de Janeiro in April 2016. Elisa Hämmerle suffered an Achilles tendon injury during the podium training at the test event and was therefore unable to qualify.

She made a comeback at the 2017 State Championships in Mattersburg; She didn’t do all-round gymnastics, but started on the uneven bars and won the final. She won another two individual titles (uneven bars and bars) at the 2018 State Championships in Wolfurt.
