Kicking it with Mia Hamm: My day with women’s soccer royalty
Posted May 12, 2019
It’s been 20 years since the U.S. women’s national soccer team defeated China. Today, many of the ’99ers are still involved in efforts to grow the sport. Kristine Lilly, Mia Hamm, and Tisha Venturini Hoch formed TeamFirst Soccer Academy and offer clinics for girls and young women. The children they coach at the clinics barely recognize them as soccer royalty.
