Club career

Canberra United FC, 2013

Mewis signed with the Australian W-League team Canberra United FC to finish the final two weeks of the 2012–13 season. [7] [8] [9] [10] She made her first appearance for the club during a 5–0 win against the Western Sydney Wanderers FC on January 8 and scored the team's fifth goal in the 89th minute of the match. [11] [12] Her second and final appearance occurred on January 12 when the team was defeated 5–1 by eventual regular season champions, Brisbane Roar FC. Mewis scored Canberra's only goal of the match in the 45th minute. [13] Canberra United finished fifth during the regular season with a 5–3–4 record. [14]

FC Kansas City, 2013

In January 2013, Mewis was drafted in the first round (third pick overall) of the 2013 NWSL College Draft to FC Kansas City for the inaugural season of the National Women's Soccer League. [15] [16] [17] She was elevated to U.S. Soccer-subsidized status during the year. [18] She scored her first goal of the season in the 74th minute of the Blues' 3–2 win over Portland Thorns FC on May 8. [19] Mewis made 20 starts as a rookie for FC Kansas City during the regular season helping the team finish second in the standings with an 11–5–6 record. [20] The team advanced to the playoffs but were defeated 3–2 in the semifinals by Portland. [21] [22]

Boston Breakers, 2014–2016

In November 2013, FC Kansas City traded Mewis to Seattle Reign FC for Amy Rodriguez. [23] Of the trade, Reign FC coach, Laura Harvey said, "Kristie is a young, bright and talented player who we feel can benefit our long-term plan. She has proven that she can be a high-level player in this environment and we feel we have the structure to help push Kristie to the next level." [24] On November 18, 2013, she was traded alongside Michelle Betos and two 2015 NWSL College Draft picks to the Boston Breakers for Sydney Leroux. [25]

She started in 15 games and scored 3 goals in 2014 for the Breakers.

Iga FC Kunoichi, 2014 (loan)

October 2014 Mewis signed a three-month contract with Iga FC Kunoichi of the Japanese Nadeshiko League first division. Wearing number 31 and playing as a forward, Mewis scored five goals in seven games, which included two braces. During matches in which she played, Iga FC compiled a record of 6–1. [26]

Chicago Red Stars, 2017

On August 21, 2017, Mewis was traded to the Chicago Red Stars for their first round draft pick in the 2018 NWSL College Draft.

[30]

Houston Dash, 2017–2021

On August 30, 2017, about a week after being traded to the Chicago Red Stars, Mewis was traded to the Houston Dash for USWNT player Morgan Brian with additional, undisclosed future considerations going to Houston. [31]

Mewis was voted onto the NWSL's May 2018 Team of the Month. [32]

During a game in May 2018 vs the Washington Spirit, Mewis tore her ACL. Mewis returned stronger in 2019 with a new mindset stating: "Me tearing my ACL was kind of a blessing in disguise because I feel like it just woke me up a little bit. It just made me ask myself, 'Kristie, what are you doing? You need to come back from this. You're being OK with being 70 or 80 percent,'" she continued, "It was just hard to admit to myself that I wasn't happy with where I was. But I think I just woke up one day and was like, 'Let's do this.'". [33] The next year, Mewis would go on to help the Houston Dash win their first trophy at the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup.

Gotham FC, 2022–2023

On December 16, 2021, Mewis was selected by NWSL expansion club San Diego Wave FC in the 2022 NWSL Expansion Draft and subsequently traded to Gotham FC in exchange for $200,000 in allocation money.

International career

Youth teams

Candlestick Park, October 2013

Mewis co-captained the United States U-17 team that was runner-up at the inaugural 2008 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in New Zealand. [39] Over the course of the tournament, Mewis scored two goals. She was the recipient of the Bronze Ball as the tournament's third-best player. [40] Mewis also played in the 2010 U-20 Women's World Cup in Germany where the team lost in the quarterfinals. Mewis's younger sister Sam was also a member of both youth World Cup squads.

Senior team

In January 2013, Mewis was called to the national training camp by head coach Tom Sermanni in preparation for a friendly match against Scotland. [41] She made her debut for the senior team on February 9, 2013, against Scotland and was placed on the roster for 2013 Algarve Cup. [42] Mewis scored the game-opening goal in the third minute of a friendly match against South Korea on June 15, 2013, near her hometown in Massachusetts. [43]

After earning 15 caps between 2013 and 2014, Mewis fell off the national team radar. Following a five-year absence, she was called back up to a USWNT talent identification training camp in December 2019 by new coach Vlatko Andonovski. [44] She was called to the full senior team training camps in both October and November 2020 prior to a friendly against the Netherlands. Mewis came on as a second-half substitute against the Netherlands, marking her first appearance in over six years, and scoring in the 70th minute. Her second international goal came 2,722 days after her first in June 2013, the longest span between goals in team history. [45]

In October 2020, after winning the Challenge Cup with the Houston Dash, Mewis credited her improvement in form to the process of recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury she suffered in 2018, particularly citing how it forced her to re-evaluate her competitive mentality. Following her recovery, Mewis returned the Dash in May 2019, and her improved form was rewarded with her first national team call-up in more than three years. [46]

On June 21, 2023, Andonovski named Mewis to the United States squad for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia. [47] While she did not feature during the group stage, she made her first World Cup appearance during the game against Sweden, coming on in the last minute of extra time before the penalty shootout. [48] With her first and only touch in the World Cup, Mewis converted her shot, putting the U.S. up 3–2. However, the team went on to miss three of the next four penalties, eliminating the U.S. from the World Cup in the Round of 16.

Personal life

Mewis is the older sister of Sam Mewis, who also played on the United States women's national soccer team. [49] She previously dated Houston Dash teammate Rachel Daly. [50] Since the beginning of 2021, Mewis has been in a relationship with Australian soccer player Sam Kerr. Mewis and Kerr are engaged as of late 2023. [51] On November 18, 2024, she announced that she and Kerr were expecting their first child, due in 2025. [52]

Television and film

Mewis appeared in the Netflix documentary series Under Pressure, which follows the U.S. women's national soccer team as they compete in the 2023 World Cup. The docuseries premiered on December 12, 2023. [53]
