She's experienced the highs of two A-grade premierships with the Emus and the lows of some less than successful years.
Ahead of her 400th game, Clark, 44, says there is only one thing left to cross of her netballing bucket list.
"The prospect of one day playing with my daughter Keely is my ultimate aim," she said.
Although Keely Clark is only 12 years old and therefore three years away from playing senior netball, Clark said she has no intentions of hanging up her runners any time soon.
"So far my body seems to be holding up," she laughed.
"I've got a few old aches and pains but I would love to keep playing, if I can keep my spot and keep helping the club that would be great."
When asked what Skipton means to her, Clark's answer was not surprising.
"It's home," she said.
"Ever since I met my husband I've been a part of the club and I've been a life member since 2010. Apart from my family it's my life, I love my netball, I love the club and the people in it."
While Clark isn't able to play her milestone game in Skipton, she said playing the contest at the home-ground of a bitter rival is the nest best result.
"Even though Saturday's game isn't at home, the fact it's against Carngham-Linton is the next best option."
"There are people there who I've played against for years like Tracey Dawson and Jacki Spratling... the fact that they have been there across my journey will make the game all the more special."
Clark's Emus' battle with the Saints will be an important one as the competition enters it's back half, with both sides battling for a finals spot.
