Ana Bjelica (Serbian: Ана Бјелица; born 3 April 1992) is a Serbian volleyball player who plays for CSM Târgovişte. She is younger sister of basketball players Milko and Milka Bjelica. Her family is Serbian Montenegrin, but, contrary to her siblings, she decided to represent native Serbia instead of Montenegro.

In 2020, Bjelica signed for the Chinese team Beijing BAIC Motor, but did not play due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She returned to the Serbian team Železničar Lajkovac and won the 2021 Serbian Cup, and then joined Polish Radom Radomka in the playoff.[1]
