Alice Zoe Monaghan was born in Basingstoke, Hampshire on 20th March 2000 and is a right handed batter and right arm medium-fast bowler.
Monaghan made her debut for Hampshire in 2016 against Somerset, and scored her career-best of 43* in her first ever Women’s County Championship Match against Leicestershire in August 2016.
She was part of the Hampshire team that bagged consecutive Championship titles, winning Division Two in 2017 before claiming the top spot in Division One in 2018.
Monaghan previously played for Yorkshire Diamonds in 2018 and Loughborough Lightning in 2019 before returning to the south coast with the Southern Vipers in 2020 with the new regional hub domestic system.
She made her debut for the Vipers in the 2020 Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and played all seven matches as the Vipers won the inaugural competition, where she scored 11 runs and bowled four overs.
In 2021, Monaghan played three Charlotte Edwards Cup matches and four Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy matches for the Vipers.
On 28th August 2021, Monaghan blitzed a 17-ball 30* as the Vipers narrowly missed out on beating the eventual Charlotte Edwards Cup champions, South East Stars, at The Ageas Bowl.
The all-rounder also featured in six matches for London Spirit in the Hundred, and had a memorable graduation ceremony on the Lord’s pavilion balcony.
In 2022, Alice turned out four times for the Vipers while playing six games for London Spirit in The Hundred, and was retained by the same team for the 2023 Hundred.
In April 2023, Monaghan was awarded her first professional contract, and responded with a career-best season, scoring 109 runs and taking eight wickets in 17 matches, with five catches as she garnered a reputation for being one of the best fielders on the domestic scene.
Her reward was her first year-long contract which sees her remain a Viper at least until the end of the 2024 season.
In the 2024 Charlotte Edwards Cup, Monaghan smashed her career-best score for the Vipers as she reached 44* against South East Stars at the Oval, in a 71-run partnership with Rhianna Southby.
