A proud Rockhampton product, Shearer first joined the Firebirds environment as a training partner ahead of the 2023 season, before earning her elevation to the full playing roster and officially becoming Firebird No.110 when she made her debut in 2024.
Across her three seasons in Purple so far, the popular 23-year-old has made 31 Super Netball appearances for the club, holding her own against the world’s best shooters.
A genuine contender at goalkeeper and goal defence, Shearer represented the state at 19U level and featured for the Queensland Sapphires as she worked her way towards the elite level.
“I’m so excited to be back for my fourth season in purple,” Shearer said.
“I love this club and our fans, and I cannot wait to be a part of something great in 2027.”
Firebirds Head Coach Kiri Wills is excited to witness Shearer’s ongoing development at the club.
"Isabelle has been an outstanding team-first player and a real credit to herself throughout her time in our program," Wills said.
"She is a superb prospect for netball in Queensland and Australia given her height but where Isabelle has an edge is her strength, athleticism and engine. Not many players her size can put out the repeat efforts she does.
“Giz is a great person to work with. She is coachable and responds well to direction and we look forward to her continuing to grow and to giving us selection headaches in 2027.”
