Join us as we dive deep into the extraordinary journey of Sydney Leroux, Olympic gold medalist and FIFA World Cup champion. Born to athletic parents—a Canadian softball star mother and American baseball player father—Sydney's path from Surrey, British Columbia to becoming a USWNT icon exemplifies determination and cross-border ambition.
This episode explores how a 15-year-old Leroux broke records with the Vancouver Whitecaps before dominating the 2008 U20 World Cup, earning both Golden Ball and Golden Shoe honors. We track her stellar UCLA career, professional evolution through multiple NWSL teams, and her current impact with Angel City FC.
