The U.S. Under-14 Girls’ National Team will resume its programming with its first event of the year taking place from Feb. 25-March 4 in Norco, Calif.

U.S. U-14 GNT head coach April Kater has called up 48 players, 36 born in 2004 and 12 born in 2005. In the U.S. Girls’ and Women’s National Team development path, players born in odd-numbered years, which are the age-cut-off years for the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, follow the path of U-15 (two years), U-17 (two years) and U-19 (two years). Players born in even years, which are the age-cut-off years for the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, follow the path of U-14 (one year), U-16 (two years), U-18 (two years) and U-20 (two years).

As this is an even year, the U-14s (2004s) will start their programming after not having any camps last year. In the odd calendar and odd birth years, as was the case in 2017, U-14 age players were absorbed into the U-15 GNT programming.

Kater’s staff will feature three former U.S. WNT players in Tina Ellertson, Kelley Cagle (formerly Walbert) and Justi Baumgardt-Yamada.

The 48 players come from 30 different youth clubs with multiple players coming from Legends FC (3) out of Southern California, PDA (3) out of New Jersey, Solar SC (3) out of Dallas, Mountain View Los Altos SC (3) out of Northern California, the San Jose Earthquakes (3), Heat FC (2) from Las Vegas, SC del Sol (2) from Arizona, Richmond United (2) out of Virginia, New York City FC (2), NTH Tophat out of Georgia (2), Seattle Reign Academy (2) and Real So Cal (2) and West Coast FC (2) out of Southern California.
