Jana Pleisch
I’m Jana — a positive and competitive person, active goalkeeper and founder of GoalieLab71. I’m driven by the ambition to reach the world elite while helping others work towards and achieve their own goals. I love competing, developing and sharing what I learn along the way.
My coaching philosophy
As a coach, my goal is to help you understand your game, develop your strengths and work on the details that can take you to the next level. I want to give you clear feedback, practical tools and new perspectives that you can actually take into your game.
At the same time, I don’t want you to simply do something because I told you to. I want you to understand why you are doing it.
That is why I often want you to leave a session with even more questions than you came with. Why did you make that decision? Could you have done something differently? What works best for you? Questioning your own game makes you more aware of your decisions and helps you develop a deeper understanding of yourself as a goalkeeper.
I will give you answers, but I also want to teach you how to find them yourself.
For me, the best coaching is a combination of knowledge, honest feedback, individual solutions and curiosity — giving you the tools to improve while helping you become more independent in your own development.
My Career Path
2012-2019
Youth leagues Switzerland
I started playing at the age of six in my local club, where my passion for goalkeeping began. From there, I progressed through all the junior age groups until 2019, building the foundation for my competitive career.
2019-2022
Sports School Erlen
I attended the floorball school in Erlen, where I had the opportunity to train significantly more than many other players and take my development to the next level. During this time, I continued playing in boys’ teams, which challenged me and helped me grow both mentally and physically as a goalkeeper.
2022-2023
Northern Stars U18, U21, Womens
I moved to Finland to play for Northern Stars to gain new experience and challenge myself in a different environment. During that time, I played in the women’s U18 and U21 teams and also had opportunities with the women’s first team, which gave me valuable game time and pushed my development.
2023-2024
Kloten Dietlikon Jets U21
I returned to Switzerland to play U21 for the Kloten-Dietlikon Jets. We had a very successful year and became Swiss champions, which was a huge highlight in my career. Alongside playing, I also worked in floorball mainly as a coach, gaining valuable experience and further developing my understanding of the game from a coaching perspective.
2024-Now
Norhern Stars F-Liiga
Since then, I have been playing again in Finland for Northern Stars. In 2025, we earned promotion to the F-liiga, and since then I have been competing in the highest Finnish league. While coaching goalietrainings for the Club aswell.
