The talented right-back has made great progress over the past three seasons, something coach Jeff Hopkins was confident would continue into the 2018/19 campaign.
“Annabel is a very consistent performer for us and the fact she won the Victory Medal at the age of 17 is a testament to that,” Hopkins said.
“She always works hard to build on her game and she’s definitely improved every season that I’ve worked with her.
“Along with Laura Alleway and Angie Beard, I’m really pleased with how our defence for next season is coming together.”
Victory’s Westfield W-League season begins with a clash against Adelaide United at AAMI Park on Sunday, 28 October.
