Carrie Billington

One of the Top Female Bodyweight Specialists in Grid League Left Atlanta a Champion. Now She Brings That Experience to Carolina Flight.

Carrie Billington got her first look at the Grid just a few years ago at a GRID 6 event. She connected with Danny Jackson, who would eventually become Atlanta Wild head coach. From there, she sharpened her skills, earned a roster spot, and executed at the highest level. Her debut year as a professional Grid player was her championship year. The Wild won the 2024 United Grid League title, defeating the Southwest Florida Sharks 18-16 in the finals, with Billington’s performance on the Echo Race helping establish their advantage.

A Doctor of Physical Therapy by training, Billington built her foundation in the functional fitness world long before joining the Grid. She is a former owner of CrossFit Hickory in North Carolina, which shaped her understanding of bodyweight strength and movement patterns. Her work as a physical therapist and health coach informs how she approaches competition. At 5’2″ and 122 pounds, she competes in a class where technical precision and efficient movement matter more than raw size. These are the advantages of a specialist.

The Grid demands more than individual strength. It demands calculation. Billington comes to Carolina Flight with a proven track record in team environments, having helped deliver a championship in her first season in the league. She understands the pressure of final matches and the specific demands the Grid places on bodyweight specialists. Carolina Flight is getting someone who already knows what it takes to win.
