Sam Kerr is an Australian professional soccer player who plays as a forward for Chelsea in the FA Women’s Super League and the Australia women’s national team (the Matildas), which she has captained since 20191. She was born on September 10, 1993, in East Fremantle, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia to her parents – Roxanne Kerr (mother) and Roger Kerr (father).
Kerr is widely considered as one of the best forwards of all time in women’s soccer. As of 2022, she is the all-time leading Australian international scorer and is the all-time leading scorer in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) in the United States. She is the only female soccer player to have won the Golden Boot in three different leagues and on three different continents – the W-League (Australia/New Zealand) in 2017–18 and 2018–19, the NWSL (North America) in 2017, 2018, and 2019, and the FAWSL (Europe) in 2020–21 and 2021–2022.
Kerr started her career at the age of 15 with Perth Glory where she played from 2008 to 2012 before moving to Sydney FC. In 2013, she joined the Western New York Flash for the inaugural season of the NWSL and helped lead the team to win the NWSL Shield.
She later played for Sky Blue FC and the Chicago Red Stars in the same league1. In 2019, Kerr indicated her interest to play in Europe, and having fielded multiple offers from clubs such as Olympique Lyonnais, Kerr ultimately signed with Chelsea. So far winning 8 trophies with the club, including back-to-back-to-back Women’s Super League titles, as well as helping the team reach the UEFA Women’s Champions League final for the first time in 2021.
Kerr earned her first senior international cap in 2009 at the age of 15 and has since represented Australia at several major tournaments including AFC Women’s Asian Cup tournaments, FIFA Women’s World Cups, and Summer Olympics. During the 2019 World Cup, she became the first Australian player to score a hat trick at a World Cup tournament. In 2021, she captained the team to their historic first-ever semi-final of a major tournament during the delayed 2020 Summer Olympics, resulting in their best ever 4th-place finish.
