Honours -

Grand Final: Winner 2022

Challenge Cup: Finalist 2023

Winger Tara Moxon joined Leeds Rhinos in 2021 from Wakefield Trinity, where she impressed in her first year in the Women's Super League.

On joining the Rhinos, she debuted against York and scored a try in the 68-16 win. She backed that up a week later by scoring against Featherstone Rovers and also crossed the try line in her first Challenge Cup appearance in Leeds colours. As the league season continued into July, the winger came into her own, scoring four tries to help the Rhinos dominate Warrington Wolves 56-0 and added two tries against Wigan Warriors in the Rhinos' final match of the regular season.

2022 saw the winger step into the number two shirt and after appearing in the Cup semi final win over York in April, she broke into the team towards the end of the campaign to play five times in the league including her first Grand Final win over York. The following year, she played in every game in the run to the Challenge Cup and came off the bench in the Final against St Helens, and also played four times in the league.

Moxon grew up in East New Britain in Papua New Guinea, whose national sport is rugby league, and was first introduced to the sport when she was around five years-old as she watched the Blues vs Maroons in the State of Origin series. In the small agricultural village of Keravet, she recalls watching the likes of Darren Lockyer and her biggest rugby influence Cameron Smith on a small TV hanging on the wall and the atmosphere being electric.

With no opportunities to play rugby in PNG, after she'd moved to the UK with her family, Moxon first played rugby while she was studying at the University of Lincoln. She played full back in her first game of rugby union, which is her most memorable rugby moment, and later joined Barnsley Ladies, where she continued to play the 15-player code and won the Yorkshire County. In 2019, she switched codes and played for Wakefield Trinity Ladies, who finished in eighth in their debut Women's Super League season.

Sport runs in her family too. Her father is a black belt in Karate, played rugby in his younger years and continues to play football, tennis, golf, squash and fish. Both her sisters like the gym and play rugby union too, while her mum played a lot of basketball. They all love to swim too, which stems from Moxon's childhood in the Pacific Islands.

Outside of rugby, Moxon works as a relationships and sexual health education and child sexual exploitation support worker while also studying a masters degree in research in Evolution and Ecology. Her hobbies include painting portraits as well as outdoor swimming, hiking and exploring new places. She also plays uke and previously participated in badminton competitions, climbed, played golf and has also kayaked.
