MLS NEXT Flex kicks off on Friday, Dec. 2 with the older two age groups getting into action.

On Saturday, Under-16 Showcase games will begin at the Empire Polo Ground in Southern California. The in-between age group will have chances to impress scouts and pro teams looking to bolster academy sides.

Under-15 games and Generation adidas Cup qualifying begins this Sunday. MLS sides in that age group will contest that leg of the event with three group games. The rest of the U15 MLS NEXT teams making the trip will play showcase matches.

Check out some of the players to watch and the GA Cup qualifying groups below.
