Dalton collapsed on 23 February 2017 while playing a regular game of social touch rugby in her home suburb of Takapuna, Auckland. She was running at the time and was not injured in the game.

During the 2011 ANZ Championship pre-season, Southern Steel shooter Daneka Wipiiti injured her ankle and was ruled out of action for up to a week. Dalton returned to the Steel as a temporary replacement player on 14 February that year.

In 2008, Dalton made a minor comeback to elite netball replacing injured Australian import Megan Dehn in the Southern Steel line. She did not take the court but was also offered a two-game contract by Northern Mystics who lost Paula Griffin to injury, which she declined.

Dalton was a member of the New Zealand national netball team, the Silver Ferns from 1996–2004 and 2006–07; she was also named in 2005 but was forced out through injury. She played domestic netball for the Northern Force from 1998 until 2000, and the championship-winning Southern Sting from 2002–2006. She was part of the 2003 Netball World Championships winning Silver Ferns squad. She made 12 caps for the Silver Ferns in total, playing in the positions of goal shooter (GS) and goal attack (GA). In 2007, she withdrew from the Silver Ferns to concentrate on family commitments.

Tania Mary Dalton (née Nicholson; 26 November 1971 – 1 March 2017) was a New Zealand international netball player.
