AFL Women's career

Prowse was drafted to the Adelaide Crows from Sturt with pick 17 in the 2021 draft. Drafted as a ruck, Prowse made her debut in round 10, 2022 (season six). She was omitted during the finals series and missed out on a first-year premiership as the Crows defeated Melbourne in the Grand Final.^[2]

Prior to the 2023 season, Prowse underwent surgery on her Achilles' tendon. It was an injury she quickly overcame, as she went on to receive back-to-back awards at Adelaide as the club's best defensive player in 2023 and 2024, the club reaching preliminary finals in both years.^[3][4] She also earned her first selection in the 22under22 team, being the central key defender in the representative 2024 side.^[5]
