Ada Martine Stolsmo Hegerberg (born 10 July 1995) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a striker for the Division 1 Féminine club Olympique Lyonnais. She has previously played for Kolbotn and Stabæk in Toppserien.

Hegerberg has represented Norway at youth international level, and made her debut for the senior team in 2011. In 2013 she was a part of the Norwegian team that won silver at the 2013 UEFA Women's Championship.

Hegerberg won the 2016 UEFA Best Women's Player in Europe Award on 25 August 2016.

Hegerberg was born in Molde, but grew up in Sunndalsøra where she played for Sunndal Fotball along with her elder sister Andrine. In 2007, their family moved to Kolbotn, where the sisters later joined Kolbotn IL.

She made her debut for Kolbotn in 2010. On 6 August 2011, she scored three goals in seven minutes as Røa were beaten 4–1, with Andrine scoring the last goal. Aged 16, this made her the youngest player ever to have scored a hat-trick in Toppserien. While still 16 years old, she finished as Kolbotn's top scorer in the 2011 Toppserien season and was voted as the league's Young Player of the Year. Ahead of the 2012 season, both Hegerberg sisters joined Stabæk. During a match against Fart in May 2012, she scored five goals during the first half of Stabæk's 8–2 win. At this stage the sisters were considered to be two of the biggest talents in Norwegian women's football, and Ada won the Statoil "Talent of the Month" award for the second time in May 2012. She became top goalscorer in the 2012 Toppserien with 25 goals in 18 matches. She also contributed two goals in the semi-final of the 2012 Norwegian Women's Cup, when Amazon Grimstad were beaten 3–0. Stabæk's 4–0 final victory over Røa saw Hegerberg score a hat-trick.
