Club Team 2012-13: Bourges Basket (France-LFB)
Career: Franklin Pierce (USA-NCAA, 2006-10), AZS Gorzow (Poland- PLKK, 2010-11), Bulleen Boomers (Australia-WNBL, 2011-12), Bourges Basket (France-LF, 2013)
The most influential and naturally gifted British player, it has been an astonishing six months for Leedham after only finding a team midway through the club season. She was brought in to ease an injury crisis at Bourges and never looked back, playing a central role in helping her new team finish in third spot at the EuroLeague Women Final Eight and then win the French Championship. Whether she returns to France this summer in a Great Britain vest remains to be seen, with Connecticut Sun looking likely to hand her a debut in the WNBA. If she does suit up for her country, Leedham will be looking to finish as their top scorer for a third successive tournament. She has a great nose for the basket, can score inside and out due to her three-point shooting and ability to force her way to the basket. Defensively she has great anticipation and quick hands which regularly harvests steals and that is complimented by a real work ethic, often highlighted by her hustle under the boards.
