Let's make this birthday one to remember.

37 years old (Born on August 27, 1987)

Happy Birthday, Ashley Jackson! From midfield magic to striking goals, you've always known how to keep the hockey pitch exciting. Whether it was your Olympic adventures in 2004 and 2008—finishing ninth then soaring up to fourth—you've shown us all that perseverance (and maybe a little sweat) pays off.

Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as scoring against rivals or dodging defenders with style. May your celebrations be legendary enough for an instant replay—and may life continue giving you plenty of reasons for victory dances both on and off the field. Cheers, champ!
