U15 National Team, Evaluation, and Selection Process

13-14 year old players who attend a USA Football Player Academy will be evaluated by USA Football Regional Scouts, the Player Academy Director, and the National Team Director for a chance to be selected to the 2012 U15 National Team. Each position will have its own unique evaluation criteria that will be reviewed by the selection committee while the player is performing drills at the Player Academy.

Players selected to the U15 National Team will be
announced in January 2012.

Team USA athletes represent the best parts of the game, on and off the field. Talented, high-character players will be selected to our U15 National Team and are expected to show respect for their teammates, pride in representing their country and enthusiasm for the game. A good example of a Team USA athlete is current Virginia Tech All-ACC running back, David Wilson from our U19 2009 National Team. Check out his pre-game speech before taking on Canada and winning the IFAF Junior World Championship gold medal in 2009.
