Hannah Claire Betfort (born January 4, 1999) is an American professional soccer player who plays as a forward for the Utah Royals of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL).
Betfort attended Wando High School in Charleston County, South Carolina, where she played soccer as a forward.[2] She led the team in scoring in each of her first three years and was nominated for the South Carolina state Gatorade Player of the Year award.
Betfort attended Wake Forest University. While not recruited as a soccer player, she received a walk-on invitation to the Demon Deacons women's soccer team from coach Tony da Luz after attending a camp.[3] As a freshman, she started in 17 of 20 regular-season matches and scored five goals.[4] During her sophomore year she moved positions from forward to defender, playing centre-back and right full-back, and captained the team during her last two seasons.
Portland Thorns FC selected Betfort with the 37th-overall pick in the 2021 NWSL Draft.[5] She made her professional debut in the 2021 Women's International Champions Cup in August.[6] She scored her first professional goal on July 16, 2022, in a 5–0 victory against NJ/NY Gotham FC.[7]
On January 27, 2023, the Thorns re-signed Betfort to a two-year contract with an option for an additional year.[8]
On December 12, 2023, the Thorns traded Betfort, along with a 2024 draft pick and allocation money, to the Utah Royals ahead of the 2024 NWSL Expansion Draft for draft protection from the Royals.[9]
Betfort attended training camp for the United States women's national under-18 soccer team in February 2018, and competed with the team at the La Manga 12 Nations tournament in March 2018.[4] [10]
