U.S. U20 WNT coach talks about growth
CARSON, California — Most youth national team camps end with a hearty round of goodbyes and then ‘I’ll see you in a couple of months’ instagram post with funny faces in front of the crest in the locker room.
For the U20 Women’s National Team, it was a bit different. The U20s wrapped up camp on Friday with a pair of scrimmages against local college teams, but the break in between camps will not be the long. The U20s are headed back to LA at the start of next month for another camp and gearing up for some international competition that is coming at the end of May.
It will be a quick trip home and then back to training with the best in this age group at the National Training Center in only a couple of weeks.
The U.S. is still a year off from the qualifying process and a little bit further away from the World Cup, but the first building blocks of the team identity and style are starting to take shape with these initial camps.
