C & K Basildon
Bamford began featuring for Premier League - Premier Division, Southern Division side C & K Basildon - a team that would later become HTU - in 2016–17. No competitive first-team appearances arrived in her debut campaign, with the goalkeeper instead appearing 8 times for their reserve team. Her senior debut for the club came in the subsequent 2017–18 season, as Bamford made 4 appearances for C & K Basildon as they finished 2nd in the division and won the Essex Senior Cup.

Caldwell University
In February 2018, Bamford announced that she had received a scholarship from American college Caldwell University. Her first appearance came in a 2–0 defeat to West Virginia Wesleyan College on 31 August. Her first clean sheet came in her seventh appearance, as the Cougars defeated Chestnut Hill College on home turf on 22 September. In total, Bamford remained for four seasons and amassed a total of 61 appearances. In her last match, on 9 November 2021, Bamford got her one and only college assist as she set up Sarah Costanza in a 2–1 road loss to Holy Family University.
