She was the club’s inaugural captain. In 2013, a broken arm forced Zielke to miss a considerable period of football, including a chance to play in the first women’s AFL exhibition match. She returned to football late in the season and captained Coorparoo to a state-league premiership. She kicked a goal after the siren to win the game.
In 2014, Zielke was drafted by Melbourne ahead of the years women’s AFL exhibition match. She was not retained after that year’s match and would subsequently re-nominate for the draft in 2015.
