Laura Colleen Gloria Alleway (born 28 November 1989) is an Australian soccer player who currently plays for Orlando Pride in the National Women's Soccer League. She made her debut for the national team in 2010.
Alleway played as a defender for Melbourne Victory in the first two seasons of Australia's W-League. The Victory finished 5th in the 8-team league both seasons, failing to make the finals.
In Alleway's first season with Brisbane the team finished the regular season in second behind Sydney, but went on to defeat them in the Grand Final winning the title of league Champions.
The team again finished second in the 2011–2012 season, but lost their Champions title to Canberra in the Grand Final.
In January 2012, at the end of the W-League season, Alleway and Collette McCallum joined English club Lincoln Ladies for the 2012 FA WSL season. Alleway's move to Lincoln was derailed by visa problems in March 2012.
Alleway returned to Brisbane for a third season in which the team won the title of Premiers as the highest ranked team at the end of the regular season. They were defeated by Sydney in the semi-finals.
The 2013–2014 season saw the Roar concede the Grand Final to Alleway's former club, Melbourne Victory while the team failed to make the finals the following season finishing in 6th place. During her time on the team, Alleway was a key player for Brisbane's defence appearing in 52 of the team's 67 matches.
In August 2015, Alleway signed with Melbourne City in the team's inaugural season. The team finished the season undefeated winning both the premiership and the championship. Alleway played 857 minutes in 11 matches including 9 starts. The defence conceded a total of only 5 goals in the regular season and the finals.
In March 2016, Alleway and Melbourne City teammate Steph Catley joined the NWSL's newest expansion club the Orlando Pride. Orlando Pride coach Tom Sermanni gave Alleway her first cap for Australia when he was coach of the Matildas in 2010. Alleway started all five of the team's first matches before a groin-injury put her on the sidelines for the sixth week of the season.
