SAN DIEGO - San Diego Wave FC and Canada Soccer announced today that goalkeeper Kailen Sheridan has been named to the Canadian Women's National Team's 18-player Olympic Roster for the 2024 Paris Games.

Sheridan will feature in her second Olympics as Canada looks to defend their Olympic Gold they earned at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.
