Rebecca Beeson (born 20 February 1997) is an Australian rules footballer playing for the Greater Western Sydney Giants in the AFL Women's competition.

Early life

Beeson grew up on the Central Coast of New South Wales where she played soccer, softball and rugby as a junior.

Her family temporarily relocated to Perth, Western Australia when she was 12 years of age.[1] Whilst living in Perth, Beeson joined a local Youth Girls competition for Australian rules football and developed a passion for the sport.[2]

Beeson returned to Sydney during high school and resumed playing with the Macquarie University AFC. Whilst studying at the University of New South Wales, she switched to the UNSW-Eastern Suburbs Bulldogs.[3]

Beeson was drafted by the Greater Western Sydney Giants with their fourth selection and thirty-second overall in the 2016 AFL Women's draft.[4]

Beeson is of Taiwanese descent from her maternal side.[5]

AFLW

Beeson made her debut in the thirty-six point loss to Adelaide at Thebarton Oval in the opening round of the 2017 season.[6] She played every match in her debut season to finish with seven games.[7]

Beeson received a nomination for the 2018 AFL Women's Rising Star award for her performance in round 1 of the 2018 season.[8]

After a standout season in 2019, Beeson was awarded the Gabrielle Trainor Medal as the best and fairest player at the Greater Western Sydney Giants. She was also recognised for her breakout season by being named in the initial squad for the AFL Women's All-Australian team.[9]

Beeson missed the entire 2022 season (season 7) due to ongoing concussion effects but returned to the field in round one of the 2023 season.[10] She brought up her 50 game milestone in the final round of the season against Port Adelaide.[11]

Beeson enjoyed a stellar 2024 campaign which culminated in being awarded her second Gabrielle Trainor Medal.[12]
