At the end of the season it was announced that Freeborn had moved to Central Sparks, and signed a professional contract with her new side. She scored 163 runs in the 2022 Charlotte Edwards Cup, including 52 made against Western Storm. She was also Central Sparks' leading run-scorer in the 2022 Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, with 227 at an average of 45.40.
