Nicole Alicia Aiken-Pinnock (née Aiken; born 11 December 1985) is a Jamaican netball player. Pinnock started playing international representative netball as early as 2004,[1][2] although she made her senior debut in the Jamaican national team, the Sunshine Girls, at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne.[3] In 2007, Pinnock received a four-year scholarship to play basketball with Lamar University in Texas,[4] where she played center for the Cardinals.[5] However, in 2008 it was reported that Pinnock had given up the scholarship and returned to her first college, G.C. Foster.[6]

Pinnock currently plays netball for the Sunshine Girls at international level, and for Sirens (netball) in the Netball Superleague. She captained the team to bronze at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
