What is your biggest soccer girl problem?

And you soar all the time.

The sore from the exercise itself are from hitting the ground all the time.

Hitting the ground.

Everybody's going to the massage, the field players.

They're like, my hamstrings hurt, my glott's her.

I'm like, oh, I can't feel my back.

This episode is brought to you by Ida Sports. If you played soccer, you know the struggle of wearing cleats that aren't actually designed for women's feet.

That's exactly why Ida exists.

They make soccer boots specifically built for female athletes, focusing on fit, comfort, and performance.

We've been testing them out, and they're seriously game-changing.

Ida also just launched new turf and youth options, so even more players can get the right fit.

You can check them out at IdaSports.com.

All right, guys, stay in the pod.

We've got the U.S. Women's National Team and Seattle Rain goalkeeper Claudia Dickey. Claudia is one of the best young American keepers in the NWSL right now, and it is a blast to watch her. We chatted with her about why female coaches are so important, how goalkeepers handle pressure, and what it's like competing against some of your good friends. Enjoy. Yeah, so can you tell us about the She Believes Cup so

far? How has it been? It's been fun. It's obviously our first game, I don't know if you guys

watch, was a little physical and challenging and the aspect. I think it's a just, the South

American style of play is very different to, I think, what we're used to in terms of, like, they like to get in your head. They like to see if they can get you mad. I think they're just, the game has grown so much, I think, in terms of, like, last time we played them, I think we beat them by a lot. But I think we really struggled finding way around that. And, like, about like emotional control like being able to like

not be influenced by those types of mind games I think that was good for us in terms of we obviously

have a young roster but just leaning on some of the older girls to just get us through that and like

keep us focused I think it was a good first game good competition obviously winning against Canada is everybody's favorite thing to do. So that was fun. I'd love to know. So Emma is your national team coach and Laura Harvey's your coach at the rain. What is it like having two strong female coaches? Like did you have female coaches growing up? Were those your first two? Because I feel like that is such a cool. I mean,

they're both such like badasses. So I would love to know what that's like. I definitely, I had more male coaches for sure growing up. I had Philip Pooley for like three of my years. He's the goalkeeper coached for the national team a couple years ago. He was definitely a hard ass in a lot of ways, which was good for me.
