In 2016, Nottinghamshire were promoted from Division 2 of the County Championship, with Boyce ending the season as the sides third-highest run-scorer.[5] She was also the team's leading run-scorer in the Twenty20 Cup.[6] Boyce was again her side's leading run-scorer in the 2018 Women's Twenty20 Cup, with a best of 74 coming in a victory over Worcestershire.[7][8]

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 her highest List A score in the competition, hitting 83 in a 1-run victory over Surrey.[11]

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.[12][13] She played 7 matches for them in 2019, and scored her WCSL high score of 43 opening the batting against Southern Vipers.[14][15]

In 2020, Boyce played for North West Thunder in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy. She appeared in all 6 matches, scoring 105 runs at an average of 17.50.[16] In December 2020, it was announced that Boyce was one of the 41 female cricketers that had signed a full-time domestic contract.[17] She has also signed to play for Manchester Originals in The Hundred.[18]

Boyce has also played for various England Academy and Development teams, having been part of the national set-up since 2014.[9]
