Crockett-Grills grew up in Kyabram, Victoria and played football as a child before leaving the sport due to the absence of women's teams.[1] When she was older, and living in Melbourne, she returned to playing local football with Scoresby and Knox.[1]
Crockett-Grills was recruited directly by Geelong from the VFL Women's league, where she played with the Box Hill Hawks, prior to the club's inaugural season in the AFLW.[2] She made her AFLW debut during the first round of the 2019 season, against Collingwood at GMHBA Stadium.[3]
