Mia Hamm

Why I chose Mia Hamm is because I really love soccer, and I play soccer myself. Also, because she was born with a clubbed foot. Clubbed foot is a disease that you are born with and makes your foot go all weird and it makes it really hard to play soccer or any kind of sport or activity for that matter. If you don’t get some treatment for it you will have to walk on your ankles. If you walk on your feet too much your feet will start to hurt. I think that Mia Hamm is a great soccer player who has gone through a lot of troubles like being born with a clubbed foot and she had to wear corrective shoes as a child.
