usa u18 boys global youth 7s

Top U18 players are in camp right now to prepare for the Global Youth Sevens in New Zealand in December.

The camp roster was assembled based on player performances and identification opportunities across a variety of high-level competitions and development programs throughout the year, including:

7s Tournaments: Tropical 7s, NAI 7s, LAI 7s, Midsummer 7s Classic

  • USA High School National Championships
  • USA U18 XVs representation
  • Collaboration with various academies like Atlantis, EIRA, Rebel, and USAR South
  • USA Talent ID Days

"These players are relishing the opportunities to play better rugby in quality Sevens tournaments, school championships, and representative level rugby," said Head Coach David Fee. "It's exciting to see them come into camp and put their best foot forward for selection. 

"We've proven in the past that we can compete and make it to the top half of the bracket [at Global Youth Sevens], but now, I would really like to see these players have a crack at the top teams in the final rounds."

Five players return from having played in last year's tournament.

“We're excited to see how that experience improved and shaped their performance and playing standard this year," said Fee "At the end of the day, our job is to find future Eagles, and this is another step in that journey for these young men. I believe all of these players have what it takes to challenge and compete at the next level. Exposing them to camps and events like Global Youth Sevens is a very important step in their process, and all of these players, regardless of selection, will be exposed to that type of high-performance environment."

This assembly is partially financed by the Golden Eagles.

"We are very thankful to the Golden Eagles and USA Pathways for continuing to invest in these opportunities for our young men to compete."
