Initially signed as a replacement player for pregnant Gretel Bueta ahead of the 2023 season, Moore has gone on to make 37 appearances across her three seasons so far in Purple.
Establishing herself as a starting option under new Head Coach Kiri Wills, Moore featured in all 14 games in 2025 and scored 186 goals including 32 Suncorp Super Shots.
Initially hailing from Sydney, Firebird No.107 was excited about extending her time with the Firebirds.
“It’s a real honour to represent this club, and I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to return next season,” Moore said.
“While this year’s results weren’t what we aimed for, it’s clear the club is moving in the right direction. I’m excited to keep growing and contribute to what we’re building, as we work toward the 2026 campaign.”
A two-time NSW Premier League champion, Moore has also represented Australia at indoor netball and is a sports coordinator for a Brisbane school away from the court.
Firebirds Head Coach Kiri Wills said keeping the 28-year-old on her roster for 2026 reflected Moore’s status as a proven SSN-level player.
“Emily has made the most of the opportunity presented to her when she first joined the Firebirds,” Wills said.
“She’s coming off the back of a season where she featured in every game and shows maturity and on-court smarts.
“I know with Emily I have an athlete who is going to leave no stone unturned in making sure she gets the most out of herself and I’m excited to see what levels she can reach next year.”
The Firebirds will share with members and fans announcements on new player signings in coming days.
