She made her debut for the ACT Meteors in 2019, overcoming injury and osteochondritis dissecans, which had caused her pain since she was nine.[2] Two days before the beginning of the 2019–20 Women's Big Bash League season Penna had not been selected for any of the teams, but due to an injury to Alana King, the Melbourne Stars offered her a position in their squad.[3][4] She made her debut on 26 October 2019 against the Sydney Sixers. She took her first wicket the next day when she dismissed Rachel Priest lbw in a match return of 4/20 off her 4 overs.
