Career

National team

Rolls, who also played 107 international cricket matches for New Zealand, came on August 27, 1994 against Bulgaria to her first international match for the New Zealand women's national soccer team. In the following years she was used regularly, mostly alternating with Leslie King, who was number one at the time. At the Soccer Oceania Women's Championship in 1994 , she was in one of four games in the goal in which she remained clean. As the Australians scored three more goals, Australia became Oceania champions and were allowed to take part in the 1995 World Cup as representatives of Oceania , while New Zealand was left behind. By the end of 1996 she had a total of 11 appearances in the national team. Then it took 16 years until she was reinstated on March 1, 2012 at the Cyprus Cup 2012 . But even then she was only substitute goalkeeper for Jenny Bindon . She was then part of the squad for the football tournament at the Olympic Games in London , but she was not used. Even when Bindon, who played her last international match on June 13, 2013, announced her retirement in early 2014, she remained a substitute goalkeeper behind the now new number 1 Erin Nayler . At the women's soccer Oceania Championship in 2014 , she qualified with New Zealand for the World Cup in Canada . Rolls was used in two, Nayler only in the game against the toughest opponents Papua New Guinea . Neither of them conceded a goal, while their teammates scored 30 goals in three games. On May 14, 2015, she was appointed to the squad for the 2015 World Cup by her coach, who was 3 months her junior, as the oldest New Zealand player . Only the American Christie Rampone was a little older. She was also nominated for the 2016 Olympic Games and was the oldest participant in the soccer tournament, but was not used.
