ATLANTA (May 27, 2025) – After three 80-player regional mini-camps were held this year for the U.S. Under-14 Girls’ Talent ID Program – one for each region: West, East and Central – 60 of the top players from those events will come together for the U.S. U-14 Talent ID National Camp.
With the ongoing objective to expand and improve the Women’s Youth National Team player pool, the 60 players – all born in 2011 – will be in camp from May 30-June 4 at the Elite Athlete Training Center in Chula Vista, Calf.
Not only will this be an opportunity for some of the most talented young female players from across the country show their talents to National Team coaches and scouts, but the U-14 TID program provides more opportunities for female scouts and coaches as well. The entire coaching staff for the camp will be female with the U.S. Women’s National Team program, under head coach Emma Hayes, endeavoring to look at all women’s and girls’ development through a female lens.
The camp will be led by U.S. Soccer Director of Talent ID Nicole Lukic, along with all the regional Talent ID Managers, who will also act as coaches of the team. Additional female scouts will support the managers in coaching roles.
The coaches will lead and facilitate the players’ learning during the week of training, games and off-field video analysis and education sessions. Adhering the maxim of “If you can see it, you can be it,” a large portion of the support staff will consist of women as well, who along with the coaching staff will give the players numerous female role models for the entire week of training camp.
The 60 players hail from 16 states: California (16 players), Texas (9), Georgia (4), North Carolina (4), Ohio (4), Arizona (3), Maryland (3), Pennsylvania (3), Virginia (3), Illinois (3), Indiana (2), New York (2), Missouri (1), Kentucky (1), Florida (1), Nevada (1)
The U-14 TID Program is designed to discover a larger base of high potentials through widespread scouting at the U-14 age group and build the player pool foundation for the U-15 Girls’ National Teams while introducing them to The U.S. Way. The mini-camp format helps to evaluate and inspire high-potential players while accelerating their development in an engaging, supportive and challenging environment.
In addition to expanding the YNT player pool at its early stages, the scouting and identification structure gives U-14 players a meaningful opportunity to learn and apply basic principles of the U.S. Way playing philosophy and other high performance education topics such as nutrition, rest and recovery and self-evaluation tools to help them take further responsibility for their own development. Travel is minimized through the regional mini-camp set-up, helping minimize days away from home, school and club. The program also bolsters U.S. Soccer’s national network of scouts, advancing their education and development while also building the Federation’s connections with clubs across the country.
