• Mia Hamm, born in 1972, is hailed as the greatest female soccer player ever.
• Hamm’s impact was felt as a key player for the US women’s national soccer team.
• Beyond the field, Mia Hamm established the Mia Hamm Foundation.

Mia Hamm, who was born on March 17, 1972, in Selma, Alabama, is largely recognized as the greatest female soccer player of all time. She amassed a massive fan base while playing for the United States women’s national soccer team for 17 years. Hamm made an unforgettable imprint by winning the Women’s World Cup in 1991 and 1999 and Olympic gold in 1996 and 2004.

Mia began her national team experience at the age of 15 when she attended the University of North Carolina and helped the squad win four consecutive NCAA championships. At the age of 19, she became the youngest World Cup winner in 1991. Hamm set an international goal record in 1999, which she held until 2013 when Abby Wambach broke it.

Mia married Nomar Garciaparra in 2003 and retired after the 2004 Olympics to focus on her family. In 1999, she established the Mia Hamm Foundation, which is committed to bone marrow research in memory of her brother Garrett, who died shortly after the 1996 Olympics. Hamm’s legacy transcends soccer, demonstrating brilliance both on and off the field.
