Wall played in her first Tournament of Hearts in 2004 after not having played in two previous trip as Middaugh's alternate. The team lost in the semi-final to Quebec's Marie-France Larouche. In 2008, the team went to the Hearts again, losing in the semi-final to Manitoba's Jennifer Jones.

Wall left the Middaugh team in 2010 to form her own rink with Hollie Nicol, Danielle Inglis and Jill Mouzar. The team lasted for two seasons.

Wall joined the Jennifer Jones team for the first half of the 2012/13 season playing third, as Jones was expecting her first child and sat out until January.[4]
