Canada U19s to Play USA U19s

Canada has named a U19 squad to play a USA U19 team twice either side of New Year's Day.

“The staff and athletes are very excited to have the opportunity to play two games against the USA,” said Canada U19 Head Coach Dean Murten. “We have reduced the squad to 32 players: 28 will be traveling while 4 are non-traveling.  The coaching staff has been very impressed with the talent and depth we have seen throughout the five camps we have held.  This has made selection very difficult.  The USA team will be very physical and direct, thus giving the staff an opportunity to see which players can play in that environment.”

 

The USA team has not been named, but will likely include players who have just aged out of the HS All American program or are just a year too young for the USA U20 program. The games are to be played December 30 and January 2, according to Rugby Canada, and will be played in Southern California.
