CHICAGO (Nov. 13, 2024) – The U.S. Under-15 Men’s Youth National Team will hold a training camp in Fayetteville, Ga. from Nov. 14-20. U-15 MYNT head coach Tom Heinemann has called 24 players to Fayetteville, the future home of the Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center.
Players born on or after Jan. 1, 2010 are age-eligible for this one-year U-15 MYNT cycle, which culminates in next summer’s Concacaf U-15 Championship. All 24 players selected for camp were born in 2010. As one of U.S. Soccer’s youngest Youth National Teams, the U-15s serve an important role in the Federation’s mission to develop winning teams by helping build the foundation of the MYNT player pool.
Fifteen MLS clubs are represented on the roster, led by three players each from Chicago Fire FC, the Columbus Crew and the Philadelphia Union. Two players each come from the LA Galaxy, New York City FC and St. Louis City SC.
