Hello, my name is Annie Yeh, a Sophomore at Ames High School (Class of 2029). I currently play for VSA Rush 16U Girls Academy (#36) in the Girls Academy Midwest West Conference, where I have competed for the past four years, Iowa ODP 2011 Girls (#41) for the past five years, and the Ames High School Varsity team (#36). I was selected to the Iowa Club Development League (CDL) ID2 Midwest Team and participated in the US Club Soccer ID2 Midwest Select Games in Schaumburg, Illinois, for two consecutive years (2023–2024). I was also invited to attend the U.S. Soccer Girls Talent ID Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in 2025, selected for the USYS Midwest Regional Training Camp in Rockford, Illinois, each summer from 2023–2026, and invited to the Girls Academy Midwest West Talent ID Event in West Des Moines, Iowa, in January 2026.

Most recently, I was selected to the 2026–2027 US Youth Soccer ODP Midwest Regional Team, which will compete at the ODP Interregional Event in November 2026 in Orlando, Florida. Being chosen for the Midwest Regional Team reflects years of development and commitment while providing the opportunity to compete alongside some of the top players in the region.

My primary position is Center Back (4, 5), but I also play Center Defensive Midfield (6). I specialize in dictating the tempo of the game from the back. My game is built off two core strengths: A long and accurate passing range which allow me to break lines and switch the point of attack instantly. My second strength is tactical leadership I take pride with my “voice in the back” to direct the game, control the defensive shape and neutralize any threats before they can develop.

I am highly motivated, coachable, and thrive in competitive environments that demand accountability and quick decision-making. I love playing soccer because of how its both challenging and simple at the same time. I thrive the unpredictability of every game and the infinite decisions you can make in a split-second all of which gives me a rush of excitement.

What drives me is the balance soccer offers between structure and creativity, along with the constant challenge of learning, improving, and competing at the highest level possible.
Outside of soccer, my hobbies are playing piano, trumpet and badminton. I also love being outside with my dogs or going on bike rides.
