Early life and state football
Bonnici first played competitively with the under-11 boys of the Wallan Football Club. She has since then toured New Zealand as the vice-captain of the Australian AFL High Performance Academy, captained Victoria Metro Youth Girls to a national title in 2015, was selected three times for the Youth Girls All-Australians, and played for Melbourne in the 2015 exhibition match.
