In 2001 Geva became the youngest player to represent England at senior level, aged just 16. She has been involved in the England set-up ever since playing at both the Manchester 2002 Commonwealth Games and at the 2003 World Championships.
She collected international medals with England in both 2005 and 2006 – the former was a silver medal with England under-21s at the World Youth Championships in Florida and the latter a bronze medal with the England senior side at the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games.
Geva played for TeamBath in all but one of its Super Cup campaigns – including in 2004 when the team won the competition.
