Ellie Johnston, the Australian international, has signed a new one-year contract with the Sharks, extending her tenure until 2027.
Although she was contracted through 2026, Johnston quickly moved to secure her future with the team.
Having played 33 of her 48 games for Cronulla, she has proven to be one of the NRLW's standout forwards.
At just 25, she recently earned a spot in the starting line-ups for both the NSW Sky Blues and Jillaroos after a string of impressive performances.
