Anna Wijk (born 20 June 1991, Sandviken) is a Swedish floorball forward and former national team player. She is a six-time world champion, the Swedish champion of the 2014–15 season, and the winner of the subsequent Champions Cup. In 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2019 she was named the best female floorball player in the world. She played in the Swedish Super League from 2008 to 2020.
She began playing floorball with the club IBK Alba, where she stayed until 2006, before transferring to Gävle GIK for the 2006–07 season. The following year, she played for RIG Umeå IBF, and subsequently moved to the elite club IKSU. In the 2009–10 season, she ranked third in assists during the regular season, helping her team win silver medals in the Swedish Super League.[1][2]

In 2010, she transferred to KAIS Mora IF, where she experienced the most successful years of her career and became the team captain. The club won the Swedish league in the 2014–15 season, finished second six times, and third three times.[3] In addition, they won the Champions Cup in 2015.[4] During her career in the top Swedish league, Wijk became the most productive player in its history.[5][6][7] She held the record until 2025, when she was surpassed by Emelie Wibron.[8]
In 2020, she transferred to the lower Swedish league Allsvenskan Östra, joining Storvreta IBK, where she was expected to help the team gain promotion to the top league.[9] However, the league was suspended in the autumn due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and by the end of 2020 Wijk temporarily returned on loan to her former club KAIS Mora.[10][11][12] At the beginning of 2022, she retired from professional floorball.[13] However, in 2025 she made a comeback with Storvreta, helping the team secure promotion to the Super League.[14][15]
