U.S. U-15 Girls National Team kicking off training camp in Georgia with 24 players

ATLANTA – New U.S. Under-15 Girl’s National Team head coach Vanessa Mann has selected a 24-player roster for her first training camp.

The camp will take place in Fayetteville, Ga. from April 22-29, about 25 miles southeast of Atlanta, and the future home of U.S. Soccer as the Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center, which is currently under construction in the city.

All 24 players were born 2010. Nine of them were in the first U-15 GNT training camp of this cycle last fall in Fayetteville.

The players on the roster come from 21 different youth clubs, with two each from Mountain View Los Altos SC, Sting Austin and San Diego Surf SC. Thirteen different states are represented on the squad, including seven players from California and four from Texas. Forward Isabelle York, an Atlanta native, will have a short drive to camp.
