==Club career==
Prinz began her career at SV Dörnigheim FC. She made her [[Fußball-Bundesliga (women)|Bundesliga]] debut for [[FSV Frankfurt]], where she played from 1993 to 1998. During that time Prinz won two Bundesliga titles and two [[Frauen DFB Pokal|German Cups]]. In 1997 and 1998 she was the Bundesliga top scorer. In 1998, she moved to local rivals [[Eintracht Frankfurt (women)|1. FFC Frankfurt]], where she has had her biggest success at club level. In 13 seasons at the club, Prinz won six Bundesliga and eight German Cup titles. She also won the Bundesliga top-scorer award twice more in 2001 and 2007. Prinz won the [[UEFA Women's Champions League|UEFA Women's Cup]] three times with Frankfurt, in the [[2001–02 UEFA Women's Cup|2001–02]], [[2005–06 UEFA Women's Cup|2005–06]] and [[2007–08 UEFA Women's Cup|2007–08 seasons]].

For two seasons, Prinz joined [[Carolina Courage]] in the professional women's league [[Women's United Soccer Association|WUSA]] in the United States. During her short stint in America she claimed the 2002 WUSA Championship. After the [[2003 FIFA Women's World Cup|2003 World Cup]], Prinz declined an offer from [[Perugia Calcio|AC Perugia]] to play in Italy's men's [[Serie A]], fearing her transfer would be used as a publicity stunt and she would end up on the bench.<ref>{{cite web |title=Birgit Prinz sagt Perugia ab |publisher=netzeitung.de |date=23 December 2010 |access-date=5 February 2010 |url=http://www.netzeitung.de/sport/266527.html?Birgit_Prinz_sagt_Perugia_ab |language=de |archive-date=24 February 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120224043742/http://www.netzeitung.de/sport/266527.html?Birgit_Prinz_sagt_Perugia_ab |url-status=dead }}</ref>
