Jill Ellis
In 2015, the United States Women's National Soccer Team won the World Cup Championship under her leadership
Ellis began her coaching career at the collegiate level, where she gained valuable experience and honed her skills. She served as head coach for several college teams, including the University of Illinois and UCLA, where she built a reputation for developing young talent. Her success at the college level eventually led to her involvement with the United States national youth teams, where she played a key role in nurturing the next generation of American soccer stars. Her ability to connect with players and foster a winning mentality made her a natural fit for the senior national team.
In 2014, Ellis was appointed as the head coach of the U.S. women's national team, a position she held until 2019. During her tenure, she not only led the team to two World Cup titles but also helped them maintain their status as the top-ranked team in the world. Her coaching philosophy emphasized teamwork, discipline, and adaptability, which were crucial in navigating the challenges of international competition. Ellis's contributions to the sport have earned her numerous accolades, including being named FIFA World Coach of the Year for Women's Football in 2015.
After stepping down as head coach in 2019, Ellis transitioned into a new role as an ambassador for the United States Soccer Federation, where she focuses on increasing the number of women in coaching. She also took on the position of president of San Diego Wave FC, a National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) team, where she continues to influence the sport at the executive level. Ellis's legacy as a coach and leader in women's soccer is undeniable, and her impact on the game will be felt for generations to come.
