UHC Waldkirch-St. Gallen

On May 2, 2014, the UHC Waldkirch-St. Gallen announced that the Swede Fabian Arvidsson will be the new head coach of the first team. Despite offers from his home country Sweden, Norway and other clubs in Switzerland, he decided to work in Eastern Switzerland because of the sporting perspective.

In its first season as head coach for Eastern Switzerland, the team only collected eight points. There were only two wins, one over regular time and one after extra time. In the playouts, the team managed only one victory against UHC Thun. As a result, his team had to compete against the National League B representative Floorball Mittelland . The series ended 4-1 for his team.

The following season, his team was able to collect five points more, but the club ended up in the playouts anyway. The result was a 4-1 series over the eastern Swiss rival Floorball Thurgau. The descent could be prevented.

Over the past few years, Arvidsson has been able to build up an increasingly stable team with his staff and support team. The magazine unihockey.ch put his team in 12th place in the season preview and predicted relegation. The season developed differently than expected. After 14 rounds played, his team was on a playoff place. On February 1, 2017, the UHC Waldkirch-St. Gallen announced that Arvidsson will also be head coach of the UHC Waldkirch-St. Gallen will be. His assistant coach Nivin Anthony will also continue to be with the gang.

On February 12, 2018, the UHC Waldkirch-St. Gallen announced that Arvidsson will continue to be head coach of the UHC Waldkirch-St. Gallen will be.

In its sixth season, the team, under the direction of Fabian Arvidsson, qualified for the playoffs for the first time in the club's history. On February 22nd, 2020 it was announced that Arvidsson will be leaving the club at the end of the season.
