At the age of 16 in December 2019, Natalie Corless, along with Caitlin Nash, became the first women ever to compete in a FIL World Cup doubles race.[3] They finished in 22nd place out of 23 sleds (the last sled crashed out).[4] A month later the pair would go onto compete at the first ever girls' doubles event at the Winter Youth Olympics, winning silver.[5]
For the 2021–22 season, Corless switched focus to the singles event.[2]
In January 2022, Corless was named to Canada's 2022 Olympic team.[6][7]
