In the National Bank Cup, Brown played three years with the Capital Shakers before moving to the Canterbury Flames.

However, she sustained an injury during the Pulse's first match of the pre-season tournament as she had ruptured her Anterior Cruciate Ligament in her right knee.

She suffered a left knee injury just days before the Silver Ferns' opening match at the 2006 Commonwealth Games, ruling her out of the competition.
