The camp takes place September 22nd-29th and will feature an intrasquad scrimmage on Wednesday, September 25th, as well as two matches on Saturday, September 28th, against local club sides. Following the camp, Perez will select a 18-player roster to travel from October 6th-14th to represent the U.S. at a four-team tournament in Limoges, France.<\/p>\n

Last season, Glad, Lennon and Saucedo played for the U-16 RSL Academy team. All three players scored a goal in a 4-2 win over Solar Chelsea in the U-16 U.S. Soccer Development Championship in July 2013.<\/p>\n

Glad and Baird were teammates at the U-17 MNT Residency program in Bradenton, Florida earlier this year and both made the 2013 U-17 CONCACAF Championship squad.<\/p>\n

Perez has called a contingent of players born in 1996 and 1997, 33 of which have ties to U.S. Soccer\u2019s Development Academy as current or former players.<\/p>\n
