Coach, referee, new national player – and now an Olympic candidate too? Going from Bundesliga club ABV Stuttgart, Berg is a jack of all trades in his game of lacrosse.

The big goal is “Los Angeles 2028”. Six years into the Summer Olympics, lacrosse again wants to be part of the schedule for the world’s biggest sporting event. This was the last case in London in 1908. The prospect of a comeback isn’t bad, after all there are also TV markets in the United States and Canada, the country where lacrosse originated, along with various professional and college leagues. It is doubtful whether Janna Berg from Degerlocher Bundesliga club ABV Stuttgart will still be there, eventually turning 35 – a more advanced age for competitive sports. However, the midfielder dreams of participating, eventually becoming one of the pioneers in the newly developed format “lacrosse six”, a modification of the original, with which the World Federation seeks to increase the chances of entry. Example of rugby.
