Hetherington played state league football with Diamond Creek in the Victorian Women's Football League and later in the VFL Women's competition. In 2015 she suffered a major knee injury and went un-selected in the 2016 AFL Women's draft somewhat as a result.[1] Hetherington was drafted by Greater Western Sydney with their third pick and the seventeenth selection overall in the 2017 AFL Women's draft.[1] She made her debut in the six point loss to Melbourne at Casey Fields in the opening round of the 2018 season.[2] Hetherington announced her retirement in October 2022.[3]
