U.S. Under-15 Men’s Youth National Team head coach Tom Heinemann has selected a 24-player roster for the team’s first training camp of the year and third of the cycle, set for April 12-17 at Kennesaw State University just outside Atlanta.

Players born on or after Jan. 1, 2009 are age-eligible for this U-15 MYNT cycle and all 24 players called to camp were born in 2009. All players in the U-15 MYNT player pool are age-eligible for the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Qatar, which will feature players born on or after Jan. 1, 2008.

The roster features players from 11 Major League Soccer clubs, including five from the New York Red Bulls, four from Columbus Crew and three from Chicago Fire FC.

Twelve players have appeared in all three U-15 MYNT training camps thus far this cycle, while 10 are making their debut with the squad. Eleven return from helping the U.S. to a successful showing at a UEFA Development Tournament last November in Portugal, highlighted by victories against Italy and the host nation.
