Anna Kristensen started playing for her local club Skanderborg Håndbold, before she switched to Danish top club Viborg HK.[1] In her first season at the club they came third in the league, and Kristensen won the best goalkeeper in the league award.[5]
At the end of 2022, she signed a pre-contract with league rivals Team Esbjerg, which was supposed to start in the summer of 2023. However, due to Esbjerg lacking options at the goalkeeper position, they agreed that she would join the club already in January 2023.[6] The same season, she won the Danish Women's Handball Cup with Esbjerg and won the Årets Pokalfighter (cup fighter of the year) award.[7]
