Final 18-Player Rosters Announced for the CONCACAF Girls’ Under-15 Championship 2016

The tournament kicks off today at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex

Miami (Tuesday, August 9, 2016) – The Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) made public today the official rosters for the 23 teams that will participate in the second edition of the CONCACAF Girls’ Under-15 Championship, to be played from August 9-21 at the ESPN Wide World of Sport Complex at Disney in Kissimmee, Florida.

Twenty-two (22) nations from across the CONCACAF region, as well as invitee Venezuela from CONMEBOL, have signed on to participate in the tournament, designed to encourage development for youth players from across the Confederation, while promoting competition at the international level for all member associations – including those for which few opportunities have previously existed at this age level.

The ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, FL will play host to all the group phase and knock out round matches, beginning with the opening round today.

Teams will be divided into three groups of five teams and two groups of four teams. All of the group winners, plus the second place teams from the five-team groups, will advance to the quarterfinals.
