Career
Wilson was a part of the Australian national netball team for fifteen years, making her debut in 1985. Wilson became captain of the Australian netball team in 1996, while on the comeback trail from a knee injury sustained at the 1995 Netball World Championships. Wilson was called up to coach the Queensland Firebirds in 2006, after consistent lacklustre performances in the Commonwealth Bank Trophy.
She continued with the franchise in the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Championship, but was stood down from the position by Netball Queensland after the 2009 season.
In May 2013, Wilson was named as the new assistant coach for the New Zealand Silver Ferns until the end of 2015.
