Daisy D'Arcy (born 12 December 2002) is an Australian rules footballer playing for Gold Coast in the AFL Women's competition (AFLW).
D'Arcy grew up in Townsville and attended The Cathedral School throughout her upbringing.[1] Her first sporting interests were split between rugby and soccer but her mother forced her to begin playing Australian rules football for the first time in 2017.[2] A talented junior athlete, she represented Queensland in Australian rules football, cricket, rugby sevens and soccer.[3] In 2020, D'Arcy elected to pursue Australian football "because it is a bit of a mix of those other sports" and moved to the Gold Coast to take part in the Gold Coast Suns Academy program on a full-time basis.[4]
