U.S. Under-16 Women’s National Team head coach Patchy Toledo has named a 20-player roster to compete at the upcoming eight-team UEFA Friendship Tournament in Riva, Turkey from April 7-19. In Group A play, the USA will face the host nation on Thursday, April 11, Vietnam on Saturday, April 13 and Botswana on Tuesday, April 16. All three matches will be played at Turkey’s TFF Riva Facility, the federation’s National Training Center. Group B features Uganda, China, Wales and Paraguay.

On April 18, all the teams will play a placement match based on the final group standings, with the first place team in Group A facing the first place team in Group B for the championship, the two second-place finishers squaring off for third place, the third-place finishers in the groups meeting for fifth place and the fourth-place finishers playing for seventh.

Players born on or after Jan. 1, 2008, are age-eligible for this U-16 WYNT cycle. For this tournament, Toledo selected all 2008-birth year players. All players in the U-16 WYNT pool are age-eligible for this year’s FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, set for October/November in the Dominican Republic.

These matches will mark the first-ever games for a U.S. Youth Women’s National Team against Turkey and Botswana.
