In 2009–10 Curtis played her club football for Chelsea Ladies in the FA Women's Premier League National Division, the top level of women's football in England. She had previously joined Bristol Academy from South Bristol Wanderers[3] in 1999 when the club was known as Bristol Rovers W.F.C., and became one of their longest serving players.[4]
A cash-crisis at Bristol Academy in summer 2009 led to the departure of Manager Gary Green and several leading players. Corinne Yorston left for Arsenal, Curtis for Chelsea and Gwennan Harries for Everton.[5]
In December 2010, Curtis was revealed to have signed for Birmingham City's FA WSL squad.[6]
Curtis plays international football for the Republic of Ireland women's national football team.[7] In October 2009 she suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury during a World Cup qualifier in Kazakhstan.[8]
