Anna Sergeyevna Shibanova (Russian: Анна Сергеевна Шибанова; born 10 November 1994) is a Russian ice hockey defenseman and member of the Russian national team, currently serving as an alternate captain of Agidel Ufa in the Zhenskaya Hockey League (ZhHL).

She has represented Russia at six IIHF Women's World Championships, winning bronze medals at the tournaments in 2013 and 2016, and won gold in the women's ice hockey tournaments at the Winter Universiades in 2017 and 2019.[1]

Her twin sister Tatyana is also an ice hockey player.

International career

Shibanova was selected for the Russia women's national ice hockey team in the 2014 Winter Olympics. She played in all six games, recording two assists.[2]

In December 2017, Shibanova and seven other members of the 2014 Russian Olympic ice hockey squad were sanctioned for doping violations as part of the Oswald Commission. The team's results were retroactively disqualified and the players banned for life by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).[3] All eight players filed appeals with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and the cases of five were overturned on appeal but violations were confirmed in the cases of Shibanova, Inna Dyubanok, and Galina Skiba and their disqualifications upheld, however, the lifetime ban from the Olympic Games was reduced to a ban from the 2018 Winter Olympics only.[4][5]

Shibanova made three appearances for the Russia women's national under-18 ice hockey team, at the IIHF World Women's U18 Championships, with the first in 2010.[6][7][8][9]
