Foster's only appearance at the national Tournament of Hearts was in 1986 as the alternate for the Alberta team, skipped by Lil Werenka. The team went 4–7, though Foster did not play any games. Foster did not qualify for the Alberta Tournament of Hearts provincial women's championship until 1996, even despite being the leading money earner in Canadian women's curling one season. Her team of Kathy Reynolds, Marilyn Meschishnick and Crystal Rumberg went 2–7 at the Alberta Hearts that year. She did not return to the provincial championship until 2015, when her rink of Nicole Siebert, Jacqueline Brett and Raelynne Watkins won the Southern Alberta A Final.
