Displaying one of the best work rates in the world, Heather has been thundering up and down the right flank for the U.S. team since 2002 when she was only 17. She holds the record for most consecutive games played on the National Team at 74, she started 67 of those 74 matches. Long known for her speed and endurance, Heather became a fan favorite over the years for her competitive drive on the field and humorous nature off the pitch. She will finish her career as one of just four three-time women’s soccer Olympic gold medalists and a 2015 Women’s World Cup Champion.

Heather is active with several community outreach organizations: Right To Play, Athlete Ally and America Scores. She also founded the Heather O’Reilly Soccer Academy in 2013, which leads various soccer skills clinics around the country.
