The U16 age group at the ECNL Phoenix event is intriguing to follow. Many of the best teams in the country will be there.

But some are missing key players who will be competing with either Mexico or United States U16 at the Mondial Montaigu Football Tournament in France. Who can step up and make a name for themselves? And could we see an upset or two as teams take advantage of the national team call-ups?

Here are ten players and five teams to watch.
