From high school fields to World Cups and the Olympics, Abby Wambach and Julie Foudy talk about what makes a great teammate — the ones who push you, support you, and change how you play the game. They share stories about Mia Hamm, Michelle Akers, Carla Overbeck, Brandi Chastain, and Christine Lilly  as they dig into the balance between competition and connection.
