editRyder first played for Dublin at the age of 21 as a sub in the 1955 All Ireland semi-final against Mayo and held her place for 12 years, winning the first of ten All Ireland medals in 1957. She won the first of five Gael Linn cup medals with Leinster in 1956, playing her last match for Leinster in the unsuccessful final of 1966. She won five successive Ashbourne Cup honours with UCD between 1958 and 1962.
