Early life

Levy played basketball, football and netball in her youth. Playing as a midfielder in junior football, she won an under-16 premiership with South Adelaide, competing in her age bracket in the South Australian National Football League.[3] She was offered a scholarship to play basketball for the CSU Vikings in Cleveland, Ohio in 2019.[1] Levy returned to Australia and continued playing football for South Adelaide, as well as basketball for the Eastern Mavericks and the Central District Lions in the NBL1 Central.[4]

AFL Women's career

Levy was signed by the Adelaide Crows prior to the 2023 season as a rookie.[3] She didn't make her debut until round 8 of that year,[4] when she collected 12 disposals in only 46% game time in a 3-point loss to Brisbane.[5] In a 2024 match against Collingwood, Levy kicked a career-best three goals, two of which came in the space of four minutes.[6]

At the conclusion of the 2024 season, Levy was traded to Greater Western Sydney in a trade involving four clubs.[2]
