Domestic career

Boyce made her county debut in 2013, for Nottinghamshire against Staffordshire. She did not bat or bowl.[3] She played three matches that season before becoming more of a regular in the next, and she hit her maiden half-century in 2014, scoring 50* in a successful chase against Yorkshire.[4]

In 2019, Boyce joined Lancashire.[9] She was their leading run-scorer in the County Championship, scoring 262 runs at an average of 43.66, which was also the highest of any non-international player across the whole competition.[10] She also achieved what was at the time her highest List A score in the competition, hitting 83 in a 1-run victory over Surrey.[11] In 2021, she hit 179 runs as her side won the North Group of the Twenty20 Cup, including 96* from 73 balls in a match against North East Warriors.[12][13] In 2022, she was the leading run-scorer across the entire Twenty20 Cup, with 306 runs including three half-centuries.[14] At the end of the 2022 season, it was announced that Boyce had left Lancashire.[15]

Boyce was part of Loughborough Lightning's squad in the Women's Cricket Super League in 2016 and 2017, but did not play a match for them. She joined Lancashire Thunder in 2018, and played 9 games for them that season, scoring 98 runs at an average of 12.25.[16][17] She played 7 matches for them in 2019, and scored her WCSL high score of 43 opening the batting against Southern Vipers.[18][19]

In 2020, Boyce played for North West Thunder in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy.
