U.S. Soccer Director of Women’s Development Jill Ellis and U.S. U-15 Girls’ National Team head coach Damon Nahas will conduct the first training camp of the year for the Under-14 age group running from May 27 to June 3 at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif.

In the past, the U-14 Girls’ National Team programing consisted of one large Identification Camp during the summer that featured 80-100 players. In a change of format for 2012, for the first time U.S. Soccer is planning to stage three U-14 Girls’ National Team camps under the direction Ellis, who also oversees the U-17 Women's National Team and U-15 Girls’ National Team, and Nahas. This will be the first of those training camps that have been streamlined to take place in May, August and September, thereby starting the identification process with this age group a bit earlier, while giving the best young players in the country a more complete slate of National Team programming.

The camps will likely feature 48 players in May, 36 players in August and 36 players in September and will feature the top players in the USA born in 1998. Players are identified through scores of U.S. Soccer Training Centers being staged across the country all year long, through club tournaments around the country, as well as other youth soccer development programs such as ODP and id2. The players are also identified and selected by U.S. Soccer’s National Staff coaches and a select group of scouts from throughout the United States.
