U.S. SOCCER:
EXPONENTIAL GROWTH
After an emotional, exciting and historic 2011, the U.S. Women’s National Team had to quickly turn its
focus to 2012 and the London Olympic Games. After a successful qualifying campaign in Vancouver,
Canada in January, the USA now turns its sights on preparing for what should an entertaining women’s
soccer competition in the U.K. With just 12 countries in the Olympic tournament as opposed to the 16
that were in Germany, the level of play promises to be even higher as the U.S. team will go for its fourth
gold medal out of the five Summer Games that have featured women’s soccer.
As the governing body of soccer in all its forms in the United States, U.S. Soccer has played an integral
part in charting the course for the sport in the USA for almost 100 years. In that time, the Federation’s
mission statement has been clear and simple: to make soccer, in all its forms, a preeminent sport in the
United States and to continue the development of soccer at all recreational and competitive levels.
Multiple soccer specific stadiums have opened their doors to resounding success, and new stadiums
around the country are currently being planned and built. The National Training Center in Carson, Calif.,
is in its ninth year of existence, and in 2007 the U.S. Soccer Development Academy kicked off with much
fanfare at the state of the art facility.
COMPETITIONS
Coaching continues to get bigger in the United States, and with more classes being offered around the
country, the number of licensed, well-educated trainers and managers is larger than ever. As soccer
continues to grow, the education level amongst coaches has been tailored to match the expanding pool of
talent in the United States.
U.S. Soccer continues to set positive trends for referees in CONCACAF with reinvigorated focus on
education and training, including the realm of professional referees.
Participation in soccer continues at high levels among both youth and adults, with 4.3 million registered
players among the 24 million participants in the sport, according to the FIFA Big Count.
Sundhage has already met the challenge of preparing a
team for a world championship on short notice, taking
over as head coach at the end of 2007 with about
three months to prepare for Olympic qualifying, and
another three and a half months to prepare for the
Beijing Olympics. The run up to the Women’s World
Cup was slower-paced, but that pace is about to pick
up once again.
The U.S. team will play a handful of domestic friendly
matches in 2012, one in February, one in May and a
send-off game in early July before setting sail for London
and the Olympic Games.
The USA’s schedule of international trips will be busy as
usual with the annual trek to Portugal for the Algarve Cup
in March, a trip in early April to Japan for several
matches and perhaps a series of matches in June in
Europe as well.
The squad will likely play up to 17 matches before the
Olympics, giving Sundhage plenty of chances to evaluate
players against some of the world’s best competition.
The USA has won the last two Olympic gold medals, after
taking a silver in 2000 and winning the inaugural gold
medal for women’s soccer in 1996. The goal for 2012
will be to once again find the ultimate Olympic success,
this time in the birthplace of soccer.

U.S. SOCCER FEDERATION – HISTORY
Throughout the almost 100-year history of U.S. Soccer, the organization has been known by three
different names:
U.S. Football Association – 1913-1944
U.S. Soccer Football Association – 1945-1973
U.S. Soccer Federation – 1974-Current
The U.S. Women began and ended 2011 in the top spot
in the FIFA Women’s World Rankings. Through the end of
2011 the team had lost just eight matches in regulation
time since the end of the 2003 FIFA Women’s World Cup
– just five under Sundhage – and will look to keep
building the momentum that has made the USA one of
the most successful women’s soccer nations in history.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
Professionally, Major League Soccer continues to grow in popularity and prestige. On the women’s side,
Women’s Professional Soccer launched in 2009 to again provide the top women’s players with a top-tier
professional league. Perhaps most importantly of all, though, no fewer than 13 soccer specific stadiums
will be in use during 2012 with more facilities en route.
Since that time, the state of U.S. Soccer has evolved significantly. The U.S. MNT has played in five
consecutive FIFA World Cups and advanced to the quarterfinals at the 2002 event. U.S. Soccer is a world
leader in women’s soccer at every level, and the team has won two FIFA Women’s World Cups, along with
three Olympic Gold Medals. The United States has also hosted three World Cups with the support of its
members and strong organizational abilities.
Sundhage has seen the core of her player pool in many
important matches over the past four years and will have
plenty of days with the team before the Olympics before
naming her final Olympic roster in late June.
COMPETITIONS
In 1989, the U.S. Men's National Team hadn’t played in a World Cup in 40 years, and the U.S. Women’s
program was just four years old. U.S. Soccer was playing games in small stadiums that were rarely filled
to capacity. There were few games being televised (and none without commercials during play). There were
no soccer-specific stadiums, and there were no high-level professional outdoor leagues of which to speak.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
The progress of soccer in the United States has been astounding and is all the more astonishing when one
considers where the sport was just more than 20 years ago.
With such a relatively short time between world championships – as the back-to-back World Cup/Olympics
cycle has been going on since 1995/96 – the U.S. roster is unlikely to change much from the players
that were in Germany. However, the roster does get shaved from 21 players to an Olympic roster of 18 so
Pia Sundhage and her staff will have even more difficult decisions to make come this summer.
WNT PROGRAMS
To that end, the sport’s exponential growth in the past two decades has been nothing short of remarkable
with nearly 20 million Americans watching the Round of 16 match at the 2010 FIFA World Cup on
television.

U.S. LOOKS FOR CONTINUED SUCCESS IN OLYMPICS AS COMPETITION RISES
Sundhage is one of the few international coaches in
the world who has played in a Women’s World Cup
(the inaugural tournament in 1991 and in her home
country of Sweden in 1995) and an Olympics
(1996, which was her last world championship) but
will be coaching in her second Summer Games.
She led the USA to the gold medal in 2008 in
Beijing, defeating Brazil in overtime on a goal from
Carli Lloyd.
In her fifth full year at the helm of the United
States, Sundhage has fashioned a squad that came
within minutes of winning the 2011 FIFA Women’s
World Cup and has done well to integrate numerous
experienced veterans with some of the world’s top
young players who are hungry to win the Olympic
title after falling just short of a world championship
last summer.
The USA will be relying extensively on the pool of
talent that took them to and through the Women’s
World Cup in Germany although there will be an
infusion of a few young players.
The USA boasts an excellent combination of center
midfielders in Carli Lloyd and Shannon Boxx, who
have complemented each other well since the 2008
Olympics and will look to keep that chemistry going
as the U.S. team moves toward London. One of the
biggest changes to the U.S. lineup could be the
insertion of Lauren Cheney as an attacking midfielder.
The long-time striker, who has proven her worth at
that position on the international level, has shown
some tremendous qualities for the new position with
her ability to hold the ball high, allowing her team to
get up the field while collapsing the defense and
opening up the flanks. A powerful dribbler and an
excellent passer whether she is running at goal or
with her back to the net, Cheney could be a key piece
in the USA’s gold medal hopes.
Veteran Lori Lindsey, who played all 90 minutes
against Colombia in the Women’s World Cup, has
crafted a productive role for herself off the bench as
a backup to either Lloyd or Boxx, while youngsters
Keelin Winters, one of the top center midfielders in
WPS, and Christine Nairn, who still has one season of
college soccer remaining, provide cover in the middle.
Former Georgetown star Ingrid Wells also saw some
training time with the USA at the end of 2011.
The USA is remarkably stocked at flank midfield,
going four-deep at the position, something rarely
seen on the U.S. team in past years. Veteran
Heather O’Reilly has been a consistent positive
presence at right midfield for the past few years
and now holds the U.S. record for consecutive
games played. The crafty Megan Rapinoe, who was
a breakout star at the Women’s World Cup, has
shown she can play on the right or the left. Amy
Rodriguez, who has seen almost all of her caps at
striker, has been playing flank midfielder of late
and has shown she can be productive on the wing
as well. Of course, the remarkably skillful Tobin
Heath, a deceptive dribbler, is always an option at
left midfield. The uncapped Kristie Mewis, the
2008 U.S. Soccer Young Female Athlete of the
Year, will likely not see much action this year but
has shown tremendous promise for the future.
At forward, the Americans will of course be relying
once again on Abby Wambach, the USA’s all-time
active leading scorer with 131 goals after the
CONCACAF Olympic Qualifying Tournament. The
USA also has great depth up top with Alex Morgan
consistently showing that she may be one of the
5
best at coming off the bench in U.S. history. The
incredibly fast and tenacious Morgan has shown the
ability to score big goals, including tallies in both
the World Cup semifinal and final.
Rodriguez and Cheney, both 2008 Olympic gold
medalists who saw major minutes in Germany, are
attacking players who can of course play striker and
put pressure on any back line. The USA’s top young
forward prospect is Sydney Leroux, the USA’s alltime leading scorer in FIFA U-20 Women’s World
Cups, whose toughness, bravery and speed could
make her a factor this year.
It is clear the USA has the talent to win in London,
but as is the case every year, the competition is
constantly improving and the target is always on the
back of the Americans. Fortunately, those are two
challenges that the U.S. players relish as they look
to return to the top of the medal stand in London.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
U.S. captain Christie Rampone, the most capped
active player in the world and still a defensive force,
anchors the U.S. back line. She is joined by several
players with vast experience and the versatility to
play various positions across the back four. The USA
has three players who have shown they can play in
the center or at outside back. Rachel Buehler has
consistently been Rampone’s partner in the middle
but has also shown an ability to play at both outside
back positions. Amy LePeilbet started all six games in
the Women’s World Cup at left back but played in
the center in WPS, where she has been twice named
Defender of the Year. Becky Sauerbrunn saw her one
game of her action in Germany at center back but
can move outside if needed.
Heather Mitts, who was hampered by injuries in
2011, has bounced back strong and has the
experience of more than 100 caps and two Olympic
gold medals. Stephanie Cox, who can play on either
flank but is especially adept on the left, is loaded
with experience and skill. Kelley O’Hara, a forward
or flank midfielder during her entire college, youth
national team and full national team career so far,
has been seeing increased time as a flank defender,
where her attacking skills can be utilized. She will
no doubt be one of the options at those positions in
2012. Meghan Klingenberg, a starter on the USA’s
U-20 world championship team in 2008, has
showed promise during the very beginning of her
full international career, playing well at both right
back and right midfield. Young professional Whitney
Engen has also performed admirably in the league
and during her training with the U.S. team, helping
to push the veterans and create some excellent
competition for roster spots.
COMPETITIONS
In goal, the USA has depth that most countries
would envy. Long-time starter Hope Solo raced to
recover from shoulder surgery in the fall of 2010 in
time to show her class in the Women’s World Cup in
Germany, winning the Golden Glove as the top
’keeper in the tournament. While Solo was
rehabilitating, Nicole Barnhart performed extremely
well in her stead, and the duo should head to
London as one of the most experienced goalkeeper
tandems in the tournament. Pushing Solo and
Barnhart will be Jill Loyden, who has developed into
a solid pro and the consistent U.S. third-choice
‘keeper after a stellar college career at Villanova,
and Ashlyn Harris, the USA’s starter at the 2002
and 2004 FIFA U-19 Women’s World Cup. Alyssa
Naeher, the starter on the U.S. team that won the
2008 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, may also be
in the mix in the coming years.
Due to the injury in January of 2012 to Ali Krieger,
Sundhage and her staff will have to do some work
to solidify the back four. The USA has numerous
choices at outside back, but after losing Lori
Chalupny in 2009 and Krieger in January, the depth
on the flanks will be tested.

HEAD COACH: U.S. Women’s National Team
BORN: Feb. 13, 1960, in Ulricehamn, Sweden
HOMETOWN: Ulricehamn, Sweden
PRONUNCIATION: Soond-HAGH-eh
PIA SUNDHAGE
Just a little more than nine months after being named head coach of the U.S. Women’s National Team, Pia
Sundhage led the U.S. to a gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, rebounding from an opening match loss to
defeat Brazil in the championship game.
In the summer of 2011, she led the U.S. team to the brink of the Women’s World Cup title, deftly guiding a U.S.
team through the most competitive women’s international tournament ever, culminating in a fantastic performance
in the championship game despite falling in a penalty kick shootout to Japan.
This year will see her lead the team on yet another exciting journey – a quest to succeed at the 2012 Olympics in
London, England. Through the end of 2011, Sundhage had lost just five games at the helm of the USA, compiling
a record of 68-5-9 (.884 winning percentage). In 2010 and 2011, Sundhage was named one of three finalists for
the FIFA World Coach of the Year for women’s soccer, the first two years in which the award has been given out.
During the Women’s World Cup in Germany, the U.S. team once again captured the hearts and minds of fans
throughout the world during its dramatic run to the World Cup Final. The USA came out on top in its quarterfinal
match against Brazil in one of the greatest women’s soccer matches ever played and then used guts and guile to
defeat a talented France team in the semifinal. The USA then clearly outplayed a Japanese team that nevertheless
managed late equalizers in regulation and overtime to force the shootout.
In 2010, Sundhage led the U.S. team to a 15-1-2 record and berth into the Women’s World Cup, but the Americans
had to defeat Italy in an exciting two-leg playoff series to earn its spot after falling to Mexico in the semifinals of
the CONCACAF Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament. The USA scored 48 times while allowing just eight
goals and won the Algarve Cup, defeating Germany in the championship game.
In 2008, she led the USA to championships in five different tournaments in four foreign countries, winning the
Four Nations Tournament in January in China, the Algarve Cup in March in Portugal, the CONCACAF Olympic
Qualifying Tournament in April in Mexico, the Peace Queen Cup in South Korea in June and the Olympics in August
in China. Under Sundhage, the team compiled a record of 33-1-2, setting records for most wins and best winning
percentage in a calendar year.
Sundhage was named the sixth head coach in team history on Nov. 13, 2007, bringing to the job an extensive
international resume as both a player and coach. Prior to joining U.S. Soccer, she served as an assistant coach of
the Chinese Women’s National Team during the 2007 FIFA Women’s World Cup in China.
Sundhage (pronounced Soond-HAGH-eh) coached in the WUSA during all three years of its existence, serving as
the top assistant for the Philadelphia Charge during the 2001 and 2002 seasons before taking over as head coach
of the Boston Breakers in 2003. She led the Breakers, a team that had not made the playoffs in its first two
seasons, to the regular season championship and its first playoff berth.
One of the most respected coaches in the women’s game and widely regarded as one of the world’s all-time greatest
female players during her international career that spanned 22 years, Sundhage is the first foreign coach to take
the helm of the U.S. team and second woman. This is not her first assignment for U.S. Soccer. Sundhage served
as a scout for the USA during the 2004 Olympics.
Sundhage started her coaching career while still playing, serving as player-coach for the Hammarby club from
1992-1994. She also coached Sweden’s Youth National Teams for 11 years from 1990-2001, coaching the U16s, the U-19s and U-21s. After her retirement from the international game in 1996, she became head coach of
the Sweden Under-19 Women’s National Team, leading the team to one gold medal and two bronze medals at the
European Championships. She served as a scout for Sweden during the 1997 European Championships, the 1999
FIFA Women’s World Cup, the 2003 FIFA Women’s World Cup and the 2000 Olympics. Sundhage has also worked
for FIFA on its Technical Study Group staff for the 2004 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Championship in Thailand.
A legendary player in Sweden, she played for her country in the 1991 and 1995 Women’s World Cups, and 1996
Olympics. She scored four goals for Sweden at the 1991 Women’s World Cup, helping the Swedes to a third-place
finish. She scored one goal in the 1995 Women’s World Cup (against Germany) and played every minute of all three
matches at the Atlanta Olympics.
She captained the national team for many years, playing 146 international games while scoring 71 goals, for years
a record she held with another Swedish legend, Lena Videkull, until passed by forward Hanna Ljungberg in 2008.
Sundhage debuted for Sweden at age 15 in 1975 against England and ended her 22-year international career at
the 1996 Olympics in a win against Denmark. She led Sweden to the first European Women’s Championship in
1984, scoring the winning penalty kick against England to give her country its only European title. She also helped
Sweden earn two silver medal finishes and one bronze at the European Women’s Championships.
During her international career, Sundhage played against the United States numerous times, including matches at
the 1991 Women’s World Cup and in the 1996 Olympics. In 2000, she finished sixth in the voting for FIFA
Women’s Player of the Century.
Sundhage is one of the most admired women’s soccer personalities in the world. Already a popular and wellknown sports figure in Sweden before she took the job with the U.S. WNT; and after guiding the USA to the gold
medal in Beijing, Sundhage received numerous awards and accolades in her home country and made appearances
on numerous TV shows. Her Olympic triumph even promoted heated debate and analysis among columnists and
fans in Sweden about whether she should be named to coach the Swedish men’s national team, which had just
failed to qualify for the World Cup. She even finished high in a fan poll about who should be the next coach and
the idea of her coaching the men with famed Swedish coach Sven-Goran Eriksson was even bandied about in the
Swedish media.

COMPETITIONS
In 2011, Sundhage led the U.S. to a 13-3-4 record, with two of those ties coming during the Women’s World Cup
as the penalty kick shootout victory over Brazil and loss to Japan officially count as draws. All three of the USA’s
losses came outside the United States as the team extended its unbeaten run on home soil to 55 matches. The
USA scored 41 goals during the year while allowing 17 and played 80 percent of its matches against teams ranked
in the top 10 in the world. The USA won the Four Nations Tournament in China and once again won the prestigious
Algarve Cup in Portugal, coming from behind to defeat Iceland in the championship game to give Sundhage her
eighth tournament title with the USA.

ASSISTANT COACH: U.S. Women’s National Team
BORN: Nov. 16, 1975 in Bordentown, N.J.
HOMETOWN: Huntington Valley, Pa.
ERICA WALSH
Erica Walsh has served as an assistant coach for the U.S. Women’s National Team since December of
2007 and later that year was part of the staff that led the USA to the 2008 Olympic gold medal. She
was also a key member of Pia Sundhage’s staff for the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Walsh has served in various coaching capacities in the U.S. Women’s National Team, including head
coach of the U.S. U-17 Women’s National Team in 2005 and 2006, after assisting Mark Krikorian on
the U.S. Under-19 Women’s National Team in 2004. As the U-19s’ top assistant, Walsh helped guide
the team to a third place finish at the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women’s World Cup Thailand.
She came to Penn State after serving as the head coach at Harvard University for one season. Prior to

JOHN NATALE
John Natale joined U.S. head coach Pia Sundhage’s coaching staff in November of 2011. Natale will be
responsible primarily for the filming of trainings and matches, along with breaking down video for analysis by
coaches and players on all tactical aspects of the team’s performance. During the 2011 FIFA Women’s World
Cup, Natale served as a scout for Sundhage and her staff.
Natale is currently the head women’s soccer coach at the University of Hartford where he has run the program
for the past eight seasons. Under his guidance, the Hawks have made five America East Championship
appearances and one trip to the NCAA Tournament.
Natale has led Hartford to winning seasons in four of the last five years, and last season, the Hawks went 132-3. In 2006, Natale led the Hawks to a conference best 10th America East Championship and an
appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The team entered NCAA play with an unbeaten streak of 10 games
before falling to 12th-ranked Rutgers in the first round. Hartford, which went undefeated in conference play,
knocked off two nationally-ranked opponents and won America East regular season and championship titles.
In eight seasons, Natale has produced 28 all-conference selections, including 14 on the first team.
In the summer of 2006, Natale coached the Western Mass Lady Pioneers of the W-League. The team finished
with an 11-3-1 record and advanced to the semifinals of the Eastern Conference playoffs for the first time in
team history. Natale – who coached three all-league selections, including the U-19 Player of the Year and the
league’s scoring champion – was named W-League Coach of the Year.
Before coming to Hartford, Natale worked with Sundhage in the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA)
as an assistant coach for the Boston Breakers in 2003 (when Sundhage was the head coach) and then with
the Philadelphia Charge the previous two years (when both Natale and Sundhage were assistant coaches under
Mark Krikorian). In those roles, he was involved in all aspects of coaching, including practice planning and
coaching, player skill development, scouting, and video game and player analysis. Both franchises reached
the playoffs each year of Natale’s tenure in the WUSA.
The Hawks head coaching position represents a homecoming of sorts for Natale, who was a Hartford women’s
soccer assistant coach in 1999 (17-4-0 record that year). Prior to that, Natale coached the Wethersfield High
School boys’ team for two years. Wethersfield won the Class L state title in 1999, and he was named
conference coach of the year that season.
Natale, a Wethersfield, Conn., native, excelled as a player at Eastern Connecticut State University where he
was a captain and participated in the All-New England Senior Bowl. He graduated from ECSU in 1997 with
a bachelor’s degree in physical education. He also played professionally for the Western Mass Pioneers of
the USL.

ALL-TIME WOMEN’S WORLD CUP STATISTICS
USA IN THE FIFA WOMEN’S WORLD CUP
ALL-TIME U.S. RECORD
IN WOMEN’S WORLD CUP COMPETITION
With two championships in six FIFA Women’s World Cup competitions, one second place finish and three thirdplace finishes, the U.S. Women’s National Team is widely hailed as the most successful women’s soccer team in
the world. In its six Women’s World Cup competitions, the U.S. is 27-4-5 in 36 total games and is the only nation
to finish in the top three in each Women’s World Cup (as well as all four Olympics).
The USA hit some bumps in the road on the way to the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup, falling in the semifinal of
the CONCACAF Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament at the end of 2010 before defeating Italy in a two-game
playoff to earn the final berth to Germany. The Americans also lost two games during its World Cup preparation,
but still headed into the tournament as one of the favorites. What transpired in Germany will forever be
remembered as a breakthrough event for women’s soccer as the U.S. team’s dramatic run to the World Cup Final
inspired a nation.
The USA opened the tournament with a hard-fought 2-0 win against Korea DPR in Dresden on second-half goals
from Lauren Cheney and improbably, defender Rachel Buehler. That set the stage for a 3-0 demolition of Colombia
that featured the entire team saluting the crowd after the opening goal by Heather O’Reilly in recognition of the
large group of U.S. military and their families that helped sell-out the stadium in Sinsheim. The USA fell 2-1 to
Sweden in its final group match in Wolfsburg, which sent them into a quarterfinal against Brazil back in Dresden.
The drama and controversy-filled game featured the latest goal in Women’s World Cup history on the now-legendary
Abby Wambach header and then the U.S. prevailed in the penalty kick shootout to send the team to the semifinal.
In the semifinal in Mönchengladbach, the USA ran into an extremely talented France team that dominated the
match in stretches, but as the Americans often do at the highest levels, they found a way to win on a first-half goal
from Cheney, another Abby Wambach header and a late clincher from Alex Morgan. The USA was by far the stronger
team in the World Cup Final in Frankfurt, but let two leads slip away and fell in the penalty kick shootout to Japan.
Considered the top team in the world heading into FIFA Women’s World Cup USA 2003, the defending champion
U.S. was assured the title of tournament favorite after the competition was moved from China to the U.S. due to
the outbreak of SARS. After rolling through group play with a 3-0 record and 11-1 advantage in goal differential,
the U.S. squeezed past rival Norway by a 1-0 margin in the quarterfinals. Then in Portland, Ore. – the only city in
history to host a World Cup match in consecutive competitions – the U.S. was shocked by Germany, who scored
two injury time goals in a 3-0 victory en route to winning it all and being crowned world champion. The U.S. was
relegated to the third place game. There the red, white and blue made quick work of northern neighbor Canada 31, the same team that forced the U.S. to sudden death overtime in the CONCACAF Women’s Gold Cup final less
than one year earlier.

The biggest disappointment for the U.S. Women in the 1990s came at the 1995 Women’s World Cup in Sweden,
when the team fell to arch-rival Norway in the tournament semifinals, 1-0. The defeat was the first-ever for the
USA in WWC play and helped Norway into the final where they downed Germany to take the crown.

In 1991, the U.S. won the inaugural FIFA Women’s World Cup in China. The championship was the first for the USA
in a FIFA competition and established the dominance that the U.S. women have continued to display at the
international level. The United States were led by Michelle Akers, Carin Jennings and April Heinrichs, dubbed “the
triple-edged sword.” The trio combined to score 20 of the team’s 25 goals in China, including all five (Jennings 3,
Heinrichs 2) in a 5-2 semifinal victory over Germany and both goals (Akers) in a 2-0 win over Norway to win the title.

The United States Women’s National Team added to its prestige by becoming the first squad to host and win a
Women’s World Cup, when it downed China PR 5-4 in penalty kicks after battling to a 0-0 draw through regulation
and overtime in the 1999 final. The match was played in front of a women’s athletics record crowd of 90,185 on
June 10, 1999 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. The winning penalty kick goal for the U.S. has become a pop
culture moment in American history, with Brandi Chastain connecting on the shot and then celebrating the goal
with a nation. The championship marked the USA’s third major championship of the decade, going along nicely
with the 1991 Women’s World Cup crown and the 1996 Olympic victory.

U.S. HISTORY & INFO
In 2007, the USA was riding a long unbeaten streak and held the world’s top ranking heading into the FIFA
Women’s World Cup in China where they won perhaps the most difficult first-round group in the history of the
tournament. In Group B, the USA drew with Korea DPR 2-2 in the opening match, then got two goals from Abby
Wambach in a must-win 2-0 victory over Sweden. With advancement to the quarterfinals still up in the air, the USA
won the group with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over a vastly improved Nigerian team. The American women then met
up-and-coming England in the quarterfinal, and after an evenly played first 20 minutes, put together their best
performance of the tournament, winning 3-0 and earning a place in the semifinals against Brazil. The semifinal
marked a low point in U.S. history as the team suffered some heart-wrenching misfortune while scoring an own
goal and seeing Shannon Boxx harshly sent off at the end of the first half. The combination of factors led to a 40 loss, the worst in U.S. history, and a place in the third-place match. The USA rebounded wonderfully to win the
bronze medal, rolling over Norway by a 4-1 score to end the tournament on a high note.

WOMEN’S WORLD CUP NOTES:
U.S. defender Joy Fawcett and midfielder Shannon Boxx were named to the First 11 of the FIFA Women’s
World Cup 2003 All-Star Team. Forward Mia Hamm was named as one of the five reserves.
By beating Canada 3-1 in front of 25,253 fans at The Home Depot Center, the USA became the only
country in history to finish in the top three in all four FIFA Women’s World Cups.
The U.S. WNT has four players who played in the first four Women’s World Cups: Joy Fawcett, Julie Foudy,
Mia Hamm and Kristine Lilly. Of those four, Foudy and Hamm scored goals in each WWC tournament (with
Foudy scoring exactly one goal and Hamm scoring exactly two goals in each tournament).

Team captain and forward Kristine Lilly was the lone U.S. player named to the FIFA Women’s World Cup
All-Star Team.
With a draw and two wins in first-round play, the USA won what was widely considered one of the most
difficult opening round groups in Women’s World Cup history.
By defeating Norway 4-1 in the third-place match, the USA finished in the top three in all five Women’s
World Cup tournaments that have been contested, the only country to do so.
Abby Wambach scored six goals in the tournament, winning the Silver Shoe as the second-best scorer in
the tournament. Her six goals gave her nine WWC goals for her career, second on the all-time U.S. list
behind only Michelle Akers (12).
Of the 21 players on the U.S. roster, 10 saw action in their first Women’s World Cup.
Heather O’Reilly became the 11th U.S. player to score multiple goals in her first Women’s World Cup. Four
of those players did so in 1991, when it was every player’s first WWC.

the third best player.
By advancing to the championship game the USA kept intact its record of finishing in the top-three of all
six Women’s World Cup tournaments that have been contested.
Of the 21 players on the roster, 18 saw action. For 11 of those players, it was their first minutes in
Women’s World Cup play.

U.S. player to accomplish that feat.
Her four goals upped her World Cup total to 13, moving her past the great Michelle Akers on the all-time
U.S. World Cup scoring list.

FIFA WOMEN’S WORLD CUP USA
1999 REVIEW
The final Women’s World Cup of the century launched the beginning a new era of success for
women’s soccer. For the first time, the tournament was expanded to 16 teams and was staged
in huge stadiums across the host country, raising expectations for attendance, media coverage
and television audiences; expectations which were reached, surpassed and then crushed.
In the knockout stage, Canada provided the tournament’s biggest surprise with a well-earned 1-0 victory
against China PR, sending the ’99 finalist home early. The U.S., Germany and Sweden, who knocked off firstround darlings Brazil 2-1, also advanced to the final four. In the semifinals, the Swedes finally ended Canada's
dreams with a dramatic come-from-behind 2-1 victory. In the other semifinal, Germany stunned the hosts,
knocking the U.S. into the third-place match with two injury time goals en route to a 3-0 victory at PGE Park
in Portland.
The U.S.-German match was widely hailed as one of the greatest in women’s soccer history, surpassed in 2003
only by Germany’s thrilling 2-1 sudden death victory over Sweden. That triumph saw Nia Kuenzer head home in
the eighth minute of extra time to send The Home Depot Center into a frenzy of German joy and Swedish tears.
The U.S. closed out an ultimately disappointing tournament with an emphatic 3-1 victory over border-rival
Canada in the third-place game. The match was never in doubt, with the U.S. seeing goals from Kristine Lilly,
Shannon Boxx and Tiffeny Milbrett keep their perfect top three record in Women’s World Cup play intact.
2003 FIFA WOMEN’S WORLD CUP AWARDS
After a scoreless 90 minutes of regulation, China PR appeared to get the winner in the first 15-minutes of
sudden-death overtime, but midfielder Kristine Lilly jumped high to head a shot clear of the goal. That save
would lead to goalkeeper Briana Scurry and defender Brandi Chastain becoming heroes during the penalty
kick tiebreaker. Scurry leaped off her line to save China PR’s third shot, allowing Chastain to slam home the
game-winning penalty kick goal. With the championship, the U.S. became the first nation to win the Women’s
World Cup on its home soil.

FIFA WOMEN’S WORLD CUP USA
2003 REVIEW
Originally scheduled for China from Sept. 23 to Oct. 11, the FIFA
Women’s World Cup 2003 was moved out of the country by FIFA on May
3 because of the threat of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. In
awarding the games to the United States on May 26, FIFA chose the
United States over Sweden, the only other country besides the USA to make a formal bid to host the tournament.
While women’s soccer has no doubt become more and more competitive, the group stage of USA 2003 went
almost exactly according to script. Seven of the eight quarter-finalists from four years ago again advanced.
Only Nigeria, who were the only side not to score a goal in the finals, did not make it through, stepping aside
for Canada’s advancement. Of the seeded teams, only Norway failed to win their group, bowing to the strong

early play of Brazil. The U.S. Women’s National Team lived up to its high expectations in opening the
tournament with three authoritative wins in the tournament’s most difficult group (downing Sweden, Nigeria
and upstart Korea DPR). Sweden lost their first match but recovered to eventually fight their way into the finals.

The U.S. captured its second Women’s World Cup Championship while thrilling a nation and
becoming the story of the year. The team played in front of packed houses across the
country, beginning with a crowd of 78,000-plus at Giants Stadium cheering the team to a
3-0 tournament opening victory over Denmark. The victory set a tone for the entire tournament. After fighting
their way into the final with five victories, which included a come-from-behind 3-2 victory over Germany in
the quarterfinals and a nail-biting 2-0 victory over Brazil in the semifinals, the U.S. battled China PR for a
grueling 120 minutes before pulling out a breathtaking 5-4 penalty kick victory in the finals in front of a sellout crowd of 90,125 fans at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on July 10.

PLAYER DEVELOPMENT AND IDENTIFICATION
WOMEN’S
PLAYER DEVELOPMENT
& IDENTIFICATION
TECHNICAL DIRECTOR: U.S. Women’s National Teams
Born: February 27, 1964, in Denver, Colo.
Hometown: Littleton, Colo.
At the start of 2011, U.S. Soccer appointed April Heinrichs as the Technical Director and Jill Ellis as the
Development Director for the U.S. Women's National Teams, marking the first time U.S. Soccer has
appointed full-time positions to oversee the women's youth national team program and the programs’
overall development.
These hires along with other recent initiatives including U.S. Soccer Training Centers and the Technical
Advisors will both improve the effectiveness of existing programming for the U.S. women’s youth national
teams and improve the process of identifying the top young female players in the United States.
Heinrichs will provide technical direction for women's soccer in the United States as it relates to the U.S.
Women's National Teams with a focus on the Under-20s and younger, while overseeing the U.S. Under-20
and U.S. U-18 Women's National Teams.
Ellis will be taking the lead on interacting directly with key coaches within the youth club environment
while also guiding and directing the U.S. U-17s, U-15s and U-14s.
Both will work directly with U.S. Soccer Director of Scouting Tony Lepore and Technical Advisors in
maximizing U.S. Soccer’s scouting network on the girls’ side and both will have heavy involvement in the
implementation and execution of U.S. Soccer Training Centers for girls.
APRIL HEINRICHS
April Heinrichs was appointed Technical Director for the U.S. Women's National Teams in January of 2011. The
hiring, along with Jill Ellis as the Development Director, marks the first time U.S. Soccer has appointed full-time
positions to oversee the women's youth national team program and the programs’ overall development.
Heinrichs will provide technical direction for women's soccer in the United States as it relates to the U.S.
Women's National Teams, with a focus on the Under-20s on down, while overseeing the U.S. Under-20 and U.S.
U-18 Women's National Teams.
Heinrichs is one of the pioneers of the U.S. Women's National Team and returns to U.S. Soccer from a post with
the U.S. Olympic Committee's Sport Performance Division where she worked as a high performance director and
consultant since 2007. In her role with the USOC, Heinrichs worked with 24 different men’s and women’s
Olympic and Paralympic sports in developing their performance preparations.
Heinrichs served as the head coach for the U.S. Women’s National Team for five years from 2000-2004,
coaching the team in two Olympic Games, winning a silver medal in 2000 and a gold medal in 2004, and
one FIFA Women’s World Cup in 2003, where the USA finished third. She was the fourth coach, and first
female head coach, in the history of the program. In her time at the helm of the U.S. team, Heinrichs
compiled an 87-17-20 record.
Heinrichs became a full-time assistant coach for the U.S. Women's National Team in January 1995 under Tony
DiCicco and was on the staff at the 1995 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Sweden and for the 1996 Olympics,
helping the USA to the first-ever gold medal for women's soccer. She resigned her position as assistant coach for
the National Team following the Olympics and in 1996, took over as the head coach of the U.S. Under-16
National Team. She coached the U.S. U-16s for four years prior to taking the job as Head Coach and Technical
Director for the U.S. Women's National Team programs.
Heinrichs captained the USA to the first-ever Women’s World Cup title in 1991, and along with Michelle Akers
and Carin Gabarra, was part of the U.S. trio of strikers dubbed "the triple-edged sword" during the world
championship run in China.
COMPETITIONS
They will work together to integrate all of the youth women’s and girls’ national teams, helping players and
systems connect from one team to the next. They will also play major roles in leading the discussion on
connecting the philosophies of the WNT head coach through all the youth national teams and especially
to the massive amount of girls' youth clubs in the United States. Ellis especially will focus on the grassroots
within the youth club environment to convey the goals and philosophies of player development in order to
help produce quality players for the national team level.

UNC captured three NCAA championships during that time and finished as runner-up once. Heinrichs completed
her career at UNC as the all-time NCAA leader in points scored with 225 (87 goals, 51 assists), a record that
has since been eclipsed by eight different players. North Carolina registered an 85-3-2 record during Heinrichs'
playing career. Heinrichs became the first women's soccer player in school history to have her jersey retired when
UNC took her No. 2 off the roster.
Following her graduation from North Carolina with a bachelor's degree in radio, television and motion pictures,
Heinrichs played professionally in Europe with the Italian club teams Juventus and Prato.
Heinrichs also has extensive coaching experience in the college game, having been head coach at the University
of Virginia, the University of Maryland, Princeton University and UC Irvine. She has a 119-86-16 overall
collegiate record.

Cavaliers to four NCAA playoff berths while compiling a record of 52-27-7. Prior to becoming head coach at UVA,
Heinrichs served as head women's soccer coach at the University of Maryland, coaching her first season with the
Terrapins in 1991 and earning ACC Coach of the Year honors in 1995. Prior to that, she was the head coach at
Princeton for one season. Heinrichs also served one season as an assistant coach at William & Mary. Heinrichs
coached one season at UC Irvine in 2006.
BIG GOALS: U.S. Soccer has placed an increased emphasis
on player development and identification at the youth levels.
In 2000, she was named as the inaugural recipient of the NSCAA Women's Committee Award of Excellence for
her outstanding long-term service and contribution toward improvement and advancement of women's soccer in
the United States. Heinrichs has held a USSF “A” coaching license since 1990.

STEPPING STONE TO THE FULL TEAM
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
The role of the U-23s in the overall development of U.S. WNT players underwent some changes in 2009
with the start of Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS). Many of the players who were being kept active and
in the mix for the full team by competing with the U-23s will now be playing in the league. Therefore, new
U.S. head coach Randy Waldrum will focus on calling up some professionals in the early part of the year
before turning his attention to college-based players for the remainder of the spring and into the summer,
as that time period falls during the heart of the WPS season. He will once again be able to call in WPS
players for the December camp.
The U.S. team has been active at this age group since 1989 (in its previous incarnation it was run as a U20 program until 1998 and then morphed into a U-21 program until 2007) and has been consistently
effective in helping prepare players for the step up to the Women’s National Team. The vast majority of
current Women’s National Team pool players have competed for the U-21s or U-23s. The U-21s used to
feature “overage” players in training camps and for the Nordic Cup tournament, but now all players who
are age-eligible for the U-23s in 2012 must have been born on or after Jan. 1, 1989. This team serves a
valuable role in helping bridge the large gap between college soccer and the national team, and now has
a valuable partner in that area in WPS.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION: U.S. Soccer Technical Advisors and national team scouts use U.S. Soccer
Training Centers to identify elite players as they are building the player pools for U.S. teams.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
The USA’s oldest women’s youth national team moved to Under-23 in 2008. The change was in response
to FIFA moving its oldest youth world championship for women from Under-19s to Under-20s, as well as
a change in the Nordic Cup – long the main event for this age group – which became a U-23 event. The
Nordic Cup took a hiatus in 2009 after being staged for the 19 years and will once again not be staged in
2012. The competition, which has been organized annually by one of the Nordic countries, will hopefully
return in the future.
COMPETITIONS
There are already more than 250 Training Center sessions scheduled for 2011 in more than 30 soccer
markets around the country. The frequency of the Training Centers varies from one per month in larger areas
to two per year in smaller soccer markets.

WNT PROGRAMS
The purpose of the program is to identify elite players with national team potential from any club within
reasonable distance to key soccer markets. Players can be recommended for the program by U.S. Soccer
technical advisors, national team scouts, state associations, local clubs or college coaches. Players can be
recommended at any time by contacting [email protected]. The final roster for the Training Centers is
selected by U.S. Soccer staff.

HEAD COACH: U.S. U-23 Women’s National Team
Born: Sept. 25, 1956, in Irving, Texas
Hometown: Irving, Texas
RANDY WALDRUM
Randy Waldrum took over as the head coach of the U.S. Under-23 Women’s National Team in January of
2012, replacing Bill Irwin, who had guided the team for the previous five years.
Waldrum, who is currently the head women’s soccer coach at the University of Notre Dame, is one of the most
successful college coaches in history. In 13 seasons at Notre Dame, Waldrum has guided the Fighting Irish
to a 263-44-14 overall record while making it to eight NCAA College Cups and five national championship
matches. He advanced to the NCAA College Cup in 2000, 2007 and 2009, had runner-up finishes in 1999,
2006 and 2008, and won NCAA titles in 2004 and 2010. His teams have won 11 Big East regular season
titles and seven Big East tournament titles.
Waldrum has coached for 30 seasons in college soccer, including stints as the women’s and men’s coach at
Tulsa and the women’s coach at Baylor, a program he started from scratch in 1995.
Waldrum's career winning percentage is third all-time among women's soccer coaches with 10-plus seasons
on the Division I level and second among active coaches. He has coached players who have received 26 AllAmerica honors, including numerous players who have appeared for the USA’s Youth National Teams, in the
professional ranks and several who have earned full national team caps.
Waldrum started a first-year men's program at Texas Wesleyan in 1988 and earlier had his first collegiate head
coaching position at Austin College in 1982. He served as director of coaching for the Texas Longhorns Soccer
Club from 1987-89. Waldrum’s first coaching job was at MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas.
As a player, Waldrum earned all-district honors all four years of his playing career at Midwestern State
University in Wichita Falls, Texas, graduating in 1981 as a physical education major and political science
minor. He then played professionally for the Los Angeles Skyhawks and the Indianapolis Daredevils of the
American Soccer League.

The U.S. had astounding success in the Nordic Cup, advancing to the championship game of the
prestigious Nordic Cup 12 years in a row from 1997-2008 while winning 10 titles. The USA won an
amazing seven Nordic Cups in a row from 1999-2005. That streak ended in 2006 with a 2-0 loss to
Germany in the tournament finals, but featured an inspiring 4-0 group victory against Norway in Norway
in a game the U.S. had to win by four goals to advance to the final. The team rebounded in 2007 to
dominate a six-team tournament played for the first time as a U-23 event, defeating Germany in the
championship game by a 4-0 score, and then won the 2008 Nordic Cup with a 3-0 win against Germany
in the final while not allowing a goal for the second consecutive tournament.

U.S. HISTORY & INFO
In the past 15 years, the U.S. Under-23 Women’s National Team (previously competing as U-21s) has
amassed a 163-36-32 record. Without a FIFA competition for this age group, for years the U-23s set their
sights on northern Europe every summer for the Nordic Cup, which had established itself as the premier
international competition for European U-23 women’s teams with the USA being invited every year. Due to
the current economic climate, the Nordic Cup has been cancelled for the past four years, but it is hoped
that the competition will return in the future.

U.S. U-20S LOOKING TOWARD WOMEN’S WORLD CUP
In 2011, U.S. Soccer Women's Technical Director April Heinrichs and new head coach Steve Swanson began to
oversee the program with the focus of qualifying for the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup which was to be held
in Uzbekistan, but will be moved to another country that has yet to be confirmed. Japan is the front-runner to host
the tournament. Players eligible for the next U-20 WWC must be born on or after Jan. 1, 1992.
Swanson and his staff will have the benefit of an excellent preparation schedule that features numerous domestic
training camps and some highly competitive matches abroad, as well as a talented group of players left over from
the last cycle of U-20s and some very strong talent coming up through the ranks from the U-18s.
IN THE BEGINNING:
The History of the U-20 WNT
Originally created in 1998 as an Under-18 program, the team moved up an age level to the U-19 level in 2001
in preparation for the first FIFA-sanctioned world championship for youth women, before becoming a U-20
program in 2005 for the first FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in 2006.
Last year was a transition year for the U-20s as Steve Swanson took over the program and only played a handful of
international matches, going 6-2-1 overall and 2-1-1 against other countries. Still, the year was highly productive
as Swanson refined his player pool and saw several veterans of the U-20 level continue to mature while numerous
young players showed their ability to play and prosper at the international level. The schedule included two matches
with the Japanese U-20 squad with the USA winning one and losing one during a camp in Chula Vista, Calif.
In 2010, Jill Ellis led the team to a 16-3-5 overall record and 13-2-3 in international play, winning the title at
the CONCACAF Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament in Guatemala. The U.S. team went undefeated against
international competition until its final two friendlies before the U-20 Women’s World Cup, then fell to Germany
and Japan on a pre-World Cup trip to Germany. At the Women’s World Cup, the USA was surprised in the opener
by Ghana, a 1-1 tie, before rebounding to defeat Switzerland 5-0 and South Korea 1-0, to win the group and earn
a berth to the quarterfinal. The USA played a hard-fought match against Nigeria with regulation time ending at
1-1. A scoreless overtime led to a shootout, where the U.S. goalkeeper Brianca Henninger twice saved penalties
157
In 2009, Jillian Ellis led the team to a 9-2-3 overall record and 4-1-2 in international play as she narrowed down
the player pool in preparation for CONCACAF qualifying in early 2010. The schedule included wins against the
Norway, England and Canada U-20s teams as well as draws with the always-talented France and Germany. Kelly
Cobb, Maya Hayes and 2008 U-20 Women’s World Cup star Sydney Leroux led the USA in scoring with six goals
a piece in all matches.
In 2008, Tony DiCicco took over as head coach from Ellis fairly late in the cycle, but molded a team that would
win the USA’s seventh women’s world title. DiCicco’s side experienced some growing pains during the year, but
it all came together in brilliant fashion during the Women’s World Cup as the USA scored 12 goals and allowed
just three, controlling every match (aside from a meaningless 2-0 loss to China in group play), on the way to a
convincing 2-1 defeat of Korea DPR in the title game. The USA won three matches by 3-0 scores, including the
quarterfinal against England and then outplayed a talented German side to win the semifinal by a 1-0 score.
Leroux became just the second U.S. player to win the Golden Ball at a FIFA event, and also won the Golden Shoe
as the tournament’s top scorer with five goals. Alex Morgan also had a great tournament, scoring four times and
winning the Silver Ball and the Bronze Shoe. Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher was world class, allowing just one goal
and that came in the waning moments of the final match, a performance that earned her the Golden Glove as the
tournament’s top ‘keeper. The U-20s finished 2008 with an overall record of 20-7-0 while going 14-4-0 in
international games.
In 2007, Ellis took the team through some excellent preparation during the identification stage for this pool of
players, eventually winning the silver medal at the Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, an achievement that
included defeating the full Women’s National Team of Canada in the semifinal, 2-1. In the gold medal game, the
USA ran into a Brazilian buzz saw in front of a packed house at the famed Maracana Stadium, but that experience
will no doubt benefit the players as they moved forward in their national team careers. The U-20s finished 105-1 on the year, but four of those losses were to full Women’s National Teams.
In 2006, the U.S. U-20s played an amazing 50 matches before the 2006 FIFA U-20 Women’s World
Championship, eventually compiling an overall record of 39-10-7 including the six matches in Russia. The USA’s
16-2-3 international record was stellar, although the year ended on a down note with the fourth place finish at the
world championship. The USA got some big-time goal production from several forwards during the year, including
Jessica Rostedt (24 goals, 7 in international play), Lauren Cheney (21/9), Kelley O’Hara (20/10) and U.S. Soccer
Young Female Athlete of the Year Danesha Adams (18/7). The USA qualified for the world championship with an
undefeated run at the CONCACAF U-20 Women’s Final Qualifying Tournament held in Mexico in January of 2006,
defeating the hosts 3-0 for a berth to Russia and beating Canada 3-2 in the championship game.
In 2005, the team had a quiet year of activity due to the transition of head coaches.
In 2004, the USA went 17-7-2 and 11-5-2 in international matches, but lost its first ever match to a team in its
age group, falling to Japan. The USA finished second in CONCACAF qualifying, falling 2-1 to Canada in the
championship, but they had already secured a berth in Thailand by virtue of a clinical 6-0 win against Mexico in
the semifinal. The USA put together four excellent matches to open the U-19 Women’s World Cup, starting with
a rousing 3-0 win against Korea Republic followed by a 4-1 domination of Russia. The USA finished group play
with a hard fought 1-0 win against Spain. The quarterfinal match was against a plucky Australia, but Angie
Woznuk came off the bench to help set up both goals, which were both assisted by Stephanie Lopez in the 2-0
win that sent the USA to the semifinal. In the semifinal, the young Americans ran into a German wall. Tied 1-1
at halftime, the USA took control of flow and rhythm of the match, only to see the Germans score on a lightning
counter attack. With the USA pressing forward, Germany scored another for the final 3-1 margin. The USA earned
third-place honors with a 3-0 win against Brazil.
In 2003, the U-19s went 7-4-1 overall and 6-2-0 in international competition, getting wins against Mexico,
Japan, Germany and Holland during the year. In 2002, the U-19s went 22-2-2 overall and 17-1-0 in international
matches, including six wins at the FIFA U-19 Women’s World Cup. The victory in the title game of the first-ever
U-19 WWC was another in a long line of “firsts” for the U.S. Women’s National Team program, which includes
the first Women’s World Cup championship and the first Olympic gold medal. Team captain Lindsay Tarpley
scored a 109th minute “golden goal” against host Canada to win 1-0 on Sept. 1, 2002, in front of 47,784 fans
at Edmonton’s Commonwealth Stadium. In 2001, the USA went 10-4-4 overall and 4-0-1 in international
matches as the nucleus of the 2002 world championship team started to form.
Under Steve Swanson in 2000, the U-18s went 10-2-3, including 3-0-2 in international competition, all against
senior women’s national teams. The first season of U-18 competition in 1999 was a banner year, as the team
went 14-0-3 overall and 8-0-2 internationally, winning a gold medal in the Pan American games to clinch an
unprecedented “treble” for the U.S. Women’s National Team, which also won gold at the 1999 Women’s World
Cup and U-21 Nordic Cup.
Shannon Cirovski, a veteran of the USA’s 1991 Women’s World Cup championship team, was the first coach of
the U-18s, but stepped down to take the head coach position at the University of Maryland. She coached the U18s halfway through 1999 before U.S. Women’s National Team assistant coach Jay Hoffman grabbed the reigns
and guided the team to gold at the Pan-Am Games in Winnipeg.
In its 12 years of competition as a U-18, U-19 and now a U-20 team, the program has lost only 20 international
matches and just nine to teams in their age group, compiling an 89-20-15 all-time international record.

U.S. HISTORY & INFO
The verdict is in: the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup is an invaluable development opportunity and legitimate
proving ground for future stars. The USA’s participation in the first five events (first as a U-19, now as a U-20 event)
gave an early glimpse of young talent, many of whom have gone on to make major impacts at the full international level.
that were ordered retaken, and the USA fell in the shootout in what was the earliest elimination in history for a
U.S. team at a Women’s World Cup. With five goals in the tournament, Sydney Leroux became the USA’s all-time
leading scorer in U-20 Women’s World Cup tournaments with 10 total goals.

STEVE SWANSON
Steve Swanson returned to the U.S. Soccer coaching ranks during the summer of 2011 to head the U.S.
Under-20 Women’s National Team program. From 2000-02, Swanson was the head coach of the U.S. U-16
Girls’ National Team and the U.S. U-18 Women’s National Team. In recent years, he has served as an assistant
coach with the U-17, U-18 and U-20 Women’s National Teams.
Swanson has spent 22 seasons as a head coach in the college ranks, including the last 12 at the University
of Virginia, where he coached numerous full and youth Women’s National Team players. Swanson has led
his teams to five conference championships, 17 NCAA Tournament appearances and 21 consecutive
winning seasons.
Swanson came to Virginia after two highly successful stops at Stanford and Dartmouth. At Dartmouth,
Swanson guided the Big Green to national prominence. He did an equally impressive job at Stanford, helping
maintain the program's standing as one of the premier teams in the country while leading the Cardinal to two
Pac-10 titles in four seasons. In 2004, he led Virginia to the first ACC Championship in school history, making
him the only coach in Division I history to win titles in three different conferences.
During his four seasons at Stanford, Swanson guided the Cardinal to an overall record of 48-27-4, two Pac10 championships and three NCAA Tournament appearances. In 1999, he was honored as the Pac-10 Coach
of the Year.
Swanson has coached 20 All-Americans, eight conference players of the year and 73 all-conference
selections. Of his former players at Dartmouth, Stanford and Virginia, 24 have played professionally in the
WUSA or WPS. In 2002, Swanson became the third coach to win at least 40 games with three different NCAA
Division I women's soccer programs.
Swanson holds an “A” license from the United States Soccer Federation and earned a master's degree in
physical education (athletic administration and coaching) from the University of Iowa in 1989.
A graduate of Michigan State in 1984, Swanson played professionally in the United States and Canada for
four years before returning to school to obtain his master's degree at Iowa. He played more than 150
consecutive games in stints with the Milwaukee Wave and the Chicago Shoccers of the American Indoor
Soccer Association, and with AC Roma and the Windsor Wheels in the National Soccer League of Canada
(NSLC). While at Michigan State, Swanson was a four-year letter-winner in soccer. He was the team's leading
scorer, captain and a regional All-American his senior year.
2012 U.S. Under-20 Women’s National Team – Player Pool
Following is the current player pool for the U.S. Under-20 Women’s National Team. This is the primary pool of
players that will be used by head coach Steve Swanson for training camps and matches in 2012 as the team
prepares for qualifying for the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup. Players born on or after January 1, 1992, are
eligible for the next U-20 Women’s World Cup. The pool is constantly evolving, with new players being added and
called-up. In addition, members of U-20 pool may be called up to the U-23 Pool or the full National Team and
members of the U-17 and U-18 National Team Pools may be called-up to the U-20s. In addition, members of the
U-20 pool may attend U-18 training camps.

FIFA U-20 WOMEN’S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP REVIEW
The U.S. Under-19/U-20 Women’s National Team has participated in all five FIFA World Cups for this age
group, winning the title in 2002 in Canada, finishing third in 2004 in Thailand, taking fourth in 2006 in
Russia, reclaiming the crown in 2008 in Chile and then suffering its worst finish ever in 2010 with a
quarterfinal loss in Germany. In 2006, the competition moved to the Under-20 level, bringing it in line
with the men’s FIFA U-20 World Cup.
THE PAIN OF PENALTIES IN GERMANY (2010)
If the 2010 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup proved anything – besides Germany’s dominance at home – is
that the African teams are getting stronger. The USA drew 1-1 with both African sides it faced, and was
knocked out of the tournament at the quarterfinal stage.
The USA started the tournament with a tie against a tough Ghana side, although the Americans had plenty
of chances to win the game, firing 25 total shots with only Sydney Leroux finding the back of the net with
20 minutes left. The young Americans rebounded to defeat Switzerland 5-0 in its second match as Leroux
notched a hat trick, the first for an American woman in a Women’s World Cup since 1991 and just the
third-ever for a U.S. player.
The USA then faced the Korea Republic with the group title on the line and edged the talented Koreans
1-0 as Leroux once again found the net. That set up a quarterfinal match with Nigeria, a physical side
which somehow racked up 26 fouls (with four yellow cards) to the USA’s five. The Americans scored early
through Amber Brooks, but gave up a bomb from distance just 11 minutes from the end of the game. The
USA once again had plenty of chances to win the game, including a few in overtime, but Nigeria managed
to fire a remarkable 31 shots with U.S. goalkeeper Bianca Henninger making 14 saves.
The match went to penalty kicks, and U.S. U-20 veterans Christine Nairn and Sydney Leroux missed the
USA’s first and fourth kicks, respectively, while Nigeria made all four, but not without controversy.
Henninger twice saved the shot of Nigeria’s third kicker, only to have both wiped away and ordered retaken
by the referee. Nigeria finally tallied on its third chance.
Leroux’s five goals, which won her the Bronze Shoe as the third leading scorer in the tournament, combined
with the five she scored in 2008 in Chile, gave her the most for a U.S. player in U-20 Women’s World Cup
history. Henninger, who gave up just two goals in the tournament, won the Golden Glove as the best
goalkeeper in the competition.

The U.S. started off with two convincing 3-0 wins over France and Argentina. With the top spot in the group
locked up after just two matches, DiCicco played numerous reserves in the third group game against China
PR, a 2-0 loss.
The Americans rolled to a 3-0 win against England in the quarterfinal as captain Keelin Winters scored on
a fantastic header to get things started. The Americans then out-battled the Germans, getting an own goal
on a cross from Nikki Washington as well as a hustling slide from Leroux.
The win set up a championship game meeting with Korea DPR. Leroux scored a fantastic goal from
distance in the 23rd minute and Morgan added another brilliant long range strike just before halftime that
goes down as one of the greatest ever goals for a U.S. player in a world championship final. The dangerous
Koreans attacked with fervor, but the U.S. defense stayed strong, led by center backs Nikki Marshall and
Lauren Fowlkes. The Asian champions did pull a goal back in the second minute of second half stoppage
time, but the Americans would lift the trophy in front of an appreciative crowd in Santiago.

UNFORTUNATE FOURTH IN RUSSIA (2006)
The USA’s 2006 U-20 team disappointed in its results at the world championship in Russia, taking fourth
and becoming the only U.S. women’s team ever to finish out of the top three at a FIFA world championship.
The U.S. team had played 50 matches against national teams, colleges and women’s clubs in 2006
leading into the world championship and had never failed to score at least one goal, but somehow could
not muster one in the semifinal or third place match, which both went to penalty kicks. The U.S. team had
kicks to win both games only to miss, and then miss the next as well.
In group play, the USA struggled a bit early as U.S. head coach Tim Schulz utilized his entire roster. The
U.S. U-20s opened the tournament with a 2-1 win over minnow DR Congo. The young Americans then
defeated Argentina 4-1 in a match that could easily have seen more U.S. goals, but put together a quality
performance in the final first round match to defeat France 1-0 on a goal from Jessica Rostedt.
In the quarterfinal round, the USA looked to be the favorite after trouncing defending champion Germany
4-1 as Danesha Adams scored twice, but then came the scoreless semifinal and third-place match against
China PR and Brazil, respectively, and the painful penalty kick shootouts.
Standouts on the U.S. team included Adams, a midfielder/forward, who won the Bronze Ball as the third
best player in the tournament, as well as goalkeeper Val Henderson and midfielder Amanda Poach, who
along with Adams made the All-Tournament Team. Flank defender Tobin Heath and flank midfielder Kelley
O’Hara (two goals) also had fine tournaments for the USA.

TAKING THIRD IN THAILAND (2004)
The 2004 U.S. U-19 Women’s National Team was going to be hard-pressed to live up to the standards set
by the 2002 squad, which won the first-ever world youth championship for women while rolling over the
competition in Canada, but amazingly, they almost did. Featuring four players from the 2002 squad, the
2004 team in Thailand put on one of the finest displays of soccer ever seen by a U.S. team in a world
championship to win a difficult Group C that featured Asian champion Korea Republic, European
champion Spain and Russia.
The USA opened the tournament with a 3-0 victory over Korea Republic, scored in just the second minute in
a 4-1 victory over Russia and finished group play with a highly professional 1-0 win over Spain as Jessica
Rostedt provided the lone goal. The USA dominated Australia 2-0 in the quarterfinals as Angie Woznuk came
off the bench to help create both goals, but ran into a wall in the always tough and talented Germans in the
semifinal and fell 3-1 to end their dreams of a second world youth title. The young U.S. team rebounded
remarkably well in the Third Place match, taking out Brazil 3-0, despite the South Americans featuring the
virtuoso attacking duo of Marta and Cristiane from their silver-medal winning team at the 2004 Olympics.
It was a breakout tournament for Woznuk, the USA’s dynamic attacking midfielder, who won the Silver Ball
as the second Most Valuable Player and the Bronze Boot as the third leading scorer in the competition
despite battling a foot injury throughout. A new wave of talented American strikers also emerged as 17year-old Amy Rodriguez scored two goals while 18-year-old Rostedt and 19-year-old Megan Rapinoe scored
three goals each.
Like she did for the 2002 U-19 squad, goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris played every minute and was once again
stellar, sealing her status as one of the top young goalkeepers in the world. Harris earned All-Tournament
recognition along with Woznuk and center-back Becky Sauerbrunn, who teamed with Rachel Buehler to
form a bruising partnership in the middle of the U.S. back line. Left back Stephanie Lopez also showed
signs of future U.S. stardom while the USA was awarded the FIFA Fair Play Award, getting just two yellow
cards in the tournament.

Stephanie Lopez.
The 2008 U.S. Under-20 Women’s World Cup Team put together one of the most complete performances
ever for a U.S. team at a world championship event, scoring 12 goals while allowing just three on the way
to a glorious 2-1 title game victory over defending U-20 world champions Korea DPR. The fans in Chile
adopted the U.S. team during the tournament as the players had once-in-a-lifetime experiences during the
first-ever FIFA Women’s World Cup in South America.

HISTORIC WIN IN CANADA (2002)
In the first FIFA tournament for U-19s, under the most adverse conditions and on the biggest of stages,
the U.S. Under-19 Women’s National Team achieved one of the most historic victories in U.S. Soccer
history, defeating host Canada 1-0 on Sept. 1, 2002, in front of 47,784 fans at Commonwealth Stadium
in Edmonton, Alberta, to win the 2002 FIFA Under-19 Women’s World Championship.
This unique group of teenagers represented the first young women in U.S. history with the opportunity to
play in a sanctioned FIFA world championship. They embraced that challenge, played the semifinal and
championship game in front of massive crowds and a world-wide TV audience, and came out champions,
showing with unbridled emotion that all young girls in the United States can now look forward to the
chance to be a world champion as a youth player.
On the field, the young U.S. players had to maintain their composure in the championship game, played
in front of a massive Canadian crowd, awash with red-and-white flags. Substitute Megan Kakadelas created
the winning goal by curving a cross on the ground into the penalty area late in overtime. The ball was kept
alive by a darting Heather O'Reilly, who crashed into a defender on a hard near post run. The ball squirted
across the goalmouth to U.S. captain Lindsay Tarpley who pounded a shot into the net from close range to
end the game.
Tarpley was awarded with the Bronze Boot as the third leading scorer in the tournament with six goals while
Kelly Wilson earned the Silver Boot as the tournament’s second leading scorer with nine goals in just five
games. Wilson also picked up the Bronze Ball as the third most valuable player in the tournament.
The victory was the end of a glorious two-year run to the tournament in which the first crop of U-19s went
21-1-1 in international competition and formed a family bond that carried them past an excellent and tough
Canadian team, and their massive fan support, to the first-ever world championship for youth women.

In 2008, the U.S. Under-18 Women’s National Team was reinstituted (after having existed from 1998-2001)
to give international competition to players who have just finished a cycle with the U.S. U-17s, but are a year
away from the next U-20 cycle.
With the addition of the U-18s, the U.S. Women’s National Team program has teams at the U-14, U-15, U-17,
U-18, U-20, U-23 and full Women’s National Team levels. The structure now mirrors the men’s side (which
sends its U-23 team to the Olympics) and with the inception of the U-17 FIFA Women’s World Cup, now
competes every two years for FIFA U-17 and U-20 Women’s World Cup titles.
The U-18 WNT provides a transition for a number of those players that could possibly make up the core of the
team that would attempt to qualify for the following U-20 Women’s World Cup, or even contribute to the current
cycle of U-20s. The U-18s also provide a proving ground for players in the U-20 pool who may be just below
the core group training for the U-20 Women’s World Cup, giving them an environment to show that they are
worthy of being pulled back into the top tier of U-20s.
Dave Chesler coached the U-18s in 2009 and 2010, but in 2011, U.S. Soccer Women’s Technical Director
April Heinrichs took over will once again guide the program in 2012. In 2011, the squad went 3-1-1 that
included a victory over the German U-18s and a loss to the Japanese U-20s. In 2010, the squad went 4-2-2
and in 2009 Chesler led the team to a 4-0-3 record which included a 5-1 victory against the Canadian U-20
WNT. This year’s group of players, primarily born in 1994, will have several domestic training camps. Several
of the U-18s may be called into U-20 events as that group of players begins more intense preparations for the
2012 FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup.
Dean Duerst, who coached the U.S. U-17s in 2007, led the 2008 U-18s to a highly successful year, defeating
three college teams and winning six games against European U-19s sides in Europe.
The U.S. U-18s had a nice run of success during the late 1990s, winning the 1999 Pan-American Games in
Canada and going 14-0-3 during the year. Shannon Cirovski, a veteran of the USA’s 1991 FIFA Women’s World
Cup championship team, was the first coach of the U-18s in 1998 before then U.S. Women’s National Team
assistant coach Jay Hoffman grabbed the reins and guided the team to Pan-Am gold.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
“The journey not only made us better players, but it showed us that great things can be accomplished through
hard work, love and belief,” said Tarpley, who two years later would score for the USA in the Olympic gold
medal match. “Over the last two years, we’ve had some amazing times on the soccer field, but it’s the
friendships we’ll carry forever. I know we will look back at this 20 years from now with the same feelings for
each other that we have now. We’ll remember the day we became world champions together.”

With the win, the U-19s added another first to the glorious history of the U.S. Women’s National Team
program, which claimed the first Women’s World Cup and the first Olympic gold medal for women’s
soccer. The USA rolled through Group play, defeating England 5-1, Australia 4-0 and Chinese Taipei 6-0,
before blasting Denmark 6-0 in the quarterfinal match. The USA fell behind 1-0 to Germany in the
semifinal, before storming back to win 4-1 on two goals from Wilson, one from Tarpley and one from
defender Jill Oakes.

U.S. UNDER-17
The U-17s had a tremendous build-up schedule in place which included games against the Germany, Brazil
and Japan U-17s, but one missed penalty kick rendered the preparation moot. The team nevertheless went
16-2-3 during 2010 including a 13-2-3 record in international play with its only losses coming to Japan
three months after the disappointment at qualifying.
HEAD COACH: Albertin Montoya
MAJOR COMPETITION: 2012 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup
KEY EVENTS: 2012 CONCACAF Qualifying Tournament; 2012 FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup
In 2009, the U-17s put together an overall record of 7-2-2 including 4-2-1 in international games and
ended the year with an impressive four-game sweep of the U-17 and/or U-20 sides from Chile, Argentina
and Uruguay in Buenos Aires. The U.S. played three close matches with a German team one year older to
start the year, but tied once and lost twice at the event in Florida.

2012 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Azerbaijan
Montoya and his staff will run the squad through a vigorous preparation schedule that will include mostly
domestic camps this year plus a trip to Guatemala for World Cup qualifying and perhaps one more
international trip. In the first year of the cycle, which was 2011 for this age group, the players are technically
under-16s and in the second year – the World Cup year – the players will be U-16s and U-17s, with perhaps
some of the top U-15s thrown into the mix as well. The busy schedule is designed to prepare these 15, 16
and 17-year olds for the biggest competition of their young careers.
U.S. Soccer first added the U-17 Women's National Team to its programming at the end of 2002. The U17 program was initiated as U.S. Soccer felt it was vitally important to get more talented players training
with national team coaches and with the best players in their age group. The philosophy for the U-17s is to
accelerate the development of the USA’s best young players and better prepare them for the game’s highest
levels through training with top players and international matches.
Starting in 2008, the age group got its own world championship, an exciting prospect for the young
Americans who will get the chance to compete for their country in a CONCACAF qualifying competition and
then hopefully the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup.
In 2011, Montoya took over the program and started building but also refining the player pool as he attempts
to develop a team that can play a modern, ball-possession attacking style. The young U.S. team went 1-12 in international matches, facing Germany and Japan twice each.
The U.S. U-17s had an odd year in 2010 as head coach Kazbek Tambi put together an incredibly talented
group that outscored its opponents 38-0 at CONCACAF Qualifying in Costa Rica, but fell in the all-important
semifinal in penalty kicks to Canada to end its World Cup dreams.
continued next page
In 2006, the U-17s defeated and tied the German U-17s twice early in the year and then lost to two
women’s clubs before reeling off six straight wins including a 4-1 triumph against the Argentina U-20s. The
only setback in international matches was a 2-1 loss to the full Argentina Women’s National Team. In 2005,
the U-17s defeated Germany’s U-17s twice, and defeated Japan’s U-18s, but struggled on a trip to Mexico
where they lost to Mexico and Canada’s U-20s and Mexico’s U-18s.
In 2004, the U-17s defeated Canada’s U-17s with a resounding 5-2 win and downed Germany’s U-17s, 21. In 2003, the U.S. went undefeated in international matches, defeating Canada and Germany (twice). The
U-17s also went undefeated against much older competition at the U.S. Soccer Festival in Houston, Texas.
In fact, the only loss of the year came in a 4-3 shootout to the U.S. U-16 Girls in the first match of the year.
The U-17s played their first three matches in late November of 2002, two against older regional teams, and
then won its first international, 3-0, against Scotland in Boca Raton, Fla. on Nov. 30, 2002.

After coaching the U.S. U-16s in 2007, Tambi moved with the age group to U-17s in 2008 to prepare for
qualifying for the historic 2008 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, the first of its kind for this age group. In
2008, the U-17s compiled a record of 19-3-2 and 11-2-1 in international matches while winning the
CONCACAF qualifying tournament in Trinidad & Tobago and came within minutes of winning the inaugural
FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, eventually falling 2-1 in overtime to Korea DPR.

ALBERTIN MONTOYA
Albertin Montoya joined U.S. Soccer in the summer of 2011 for his first stint as head coach of a U.S. Women’s
National Team, taking the reins of the U.S. U-17s with the goal of guiding them through CONCACAF Qualifying
to the 2012 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
A native of Mountain View, Calif., the 37-year-old Montoya has tremendous experience coaching young players
all the way up to the professional ranks. Montoya finished his college career at Santa Clara University in 1997
and was then a first-round draft choice of Major League Soccer’s San Jose Clash, where he played one season in
1998 before suffering a major knee injury. Montoya then began his coaching career which has spanned 14 years
and a wide variety of age levels from Under-8s all the way to the professional level.
Montoya is currently the director of coaching for the MVLA Soccer Club in Mountain View, Calif., where he has
worked with young talent since 1999, helping send 14 players into the youth women’s and girls’ national team
pools. He also worked as trainer for the WUSA’s San Jose CyberRays in 2003 and has coached at the college
level, working as an assistant for his alma mater Santa Clara University women’s program from 2006-07 and at
Stanford University from 2008-09.
In 2009, Montoya was hired as head coach of FC Gold Pride in Women’s Professional Soccer and led the club
to the WPS regular season title and championship in 2010. He was named the Soccer America Women’s Coach
of the Year for 2010 and was a finalist for the FIFA World Coach of the Year for Women’s Soccer for his work with
Gold Pride.
In addition, Montoya had served as an assistant coach in various U.S. Youth National Team training camps in
the three years previous to taking the U-17 post.
As a youth player, Montoya was a member of the U.S. U-17 National Team and played in the first-ever FIFA U17 World Cup in Italy in 1991 (previously it was a U-16 tournament) under head coach Roy Rees. Montoya went
on to represent the USA at various age group levels and spent some time training with what would be the 1996
Olympic Team.
He is married to the former Erin Martinez, a Santa Clara women's soccer alumnus and former professional player
in the WUSA. The couple has a daughter, Alison (8), and a son, Michael (3), and reside in Mountain View, Calif.
Montoya holds a U.S. Soccer “A” Coaching License.
Following is the current player pool for the U.S. Under-17 Women’s National Team. U.S. U-17 head coach Albertin
Montoya will, for the most part, use this pool of players for training camps and matches in 2012 as the team
prepares for CONCACAF Qualifying with the goal of earning a berth to the 2012 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup
in Azerbaijan. Players born on or after Jan. 1, 1995 are age-eligible for the next FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup.
The pool is constantly evolving, with new players being added and called-up. Players from the U-15 Girl’s National
Team pool (’96s) and even players two years younger (’97s) than the cutoff date may also be called to the U-17s.

*Not including three shared shutouts (Campbell & Stearns, 3/23; Campbell & Bryant, 6/15; Campbell & Miller, 12/14)
The 2008 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in New Zealand was held with 16 nations playing in four venues
and four stadiums – Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, and Christchurch – and the tournament organizers
can be proud of putting on a fantastic first world championship event for this age group.
The high level of play displayed over the 18 days from such young players was a sight to behold, giving
cause for excitement about the U-17 and U-20 Women’s World Cups to come. The organization from the
Kiwis, as well as the support from the people of New Zealand, made the tournament memorable and added
to the excitement for these players getting their first taste of soccer at the world stage.

The USA’s World Cup run then picked up steam as the U-17s put together its best match to date, trouncing
the Koreans, 4-2. A powerful German squad awaited in the semifinal, but the USA put forth a tremendous
performance, coming back from a goal down to win, 2-1, as forwards Vicki DiMartino and Courtney Verloo
each scored. Verloo (four goals) and DiMartino (five goals) combined for nine of the USA’s 13 goals with
Kristie Mewis adding two more.
The first ever FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup Final opened with a startling goal for the USA in just the
second minute off a throw-in, but then Korea DPR methodically took control of the match and ended up
doubling the USA in shots. Still, the USA clung to a 1-0 lead until the North Koreans tied the game with
just 13 minutes left in regulation time. The match remained knotted at 1-1 and looked headed for penalty
kicks, but Korea DPR scored the game-winner just three minutes from the end of overtime.
Despite the loss, which ended the USA’s record of winning every “first” FIFA women’s world championship
(the 1991 FIFA Women’s World Cup, the 1996 Olympics and the 2002 FIFA U-19 Women’s World Cup),
the U.S. U-17s had a emotional run to the title game backed by some excellent individual performances.
Kristie Mewis won the Bronze Ball as the third best player in the tournament and would be named the U.S.
Soccer Young Female Athlete of the Year a few months later. DiMartino won the Silver Shoe as the second
leading scorer in the tournament and Taylor Vancil won the Golden Glove as the top ‘keeper.
Other top players for the USA included defensive midfielder Amber Brooks, defenders Cloee Colohan,
Rachel Quon and Crystal Dunn and midfielders Olivia Klei and Samantha Mewis. The Mewis sisters became
the first siblings to represent the USA in a FIFA Women’s World Cup.

The U.S. Under-15 Girls’ National Team was instituted in 2004 to help bridge the gap between the annual
Under-14 Girls’ National Identification Camp and the U.S. Under-17 Women’s National Team. As the U-17s
now have a World Cup, the importance of the U-15s grows greater, as this age group will have a tangible
goal as they enter their first major programming experience with the U.S. Women’s National Teams.
The pool of 35-40 players for the U-15s will be brought to several training camps over the year in order to
expose more players of this age to the national team camp environment and experience. The player pool is
identified on a year-round basis, through U.S. Soccer Training Centers, club soccer, ODP interregional events
and the U.S. U-14 Girls’ National Team camps.
The goal of the U-15s is to bring together talented players and let them play in game situations in order that
their skills, reading and runs are expressed through attractive, ball-possession soccer with an emphasis on
fun, free-flowing attacking and creative play.
Camps are often scheduled to run concurrent with older YNT camps to give the players an opportunity to
watch and play against older players and learn through those experiences.
Players in this year’s group of U-15s are born on or after Jan. 1, 1997, and will make up the pool that can
compete for spots on the team that will attempt to qualify for the 2014 FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup
in Costa Rica, which has an age cutoff of players born on or after Jan. 1, 1997.
In addition, Nahas runs the Next Level Academy (NLA) in Morrisville and Raleigh, N.C., a program he started in
2000 to provide individual technical training for boys and girls ages U-7 through U-13.
Nahas was the owner, technical director and head coach of the PDL Cary Clarets in Cary, N.C., from 2005-2009
and was technical director and owner of the Lady Clarets in the W-League in 2009.
He also served as an assistant coach for the Carolina RailHawks the USL Division 1 from 2007 through
2009. From 1999-2002 he was the head boys’ coach at Cardinal Gibbons High School in Raleigh, N.C.,
leading the team to a state title in 2011 and three Final Four appearances. He was twice voted the regional
coach of the year.
Nahas, who resides in Morrisville, N.C., has a U.S. Soccer “A” License.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
At this time, three training camps/events under the guidance of new U-15 GNT head coach Damon Nahas
are scheduled for 2012, which will be the ninth year of activity for this age group.
His is also responsible for technical/tactical training and development of players and coaches, while also
coaching multiple teams across all age groups and genders. His U-17 girls’ team won the ECNL national
championship in 2011 and the club has produced numerous players who have been called into the USA’s youth
girls and women’s national teams.
COMPETITIONS
U.S. UNDER-15 GIRLS’ NATIONAL TEAM SETS BASE FOR THE FUTURE
Nahas is currently in his first year as the technical director for the Capital Area Soccer League (CASL) in Raleigh,
N.C. His job responsibilities for one of the top youth clubs in the south include developing and executing a

In 2012, for the first time, U.S. Soccer is planning to stage three U-14 Girls’ National Team camps under
the direction of U.S. Soccer's Development Director Jill Ellis, who also oversees the U-17 Women's National
Team and U-15 Girls’ National Team. The camps have been streamlined to take place in May, August and
September, thereby starting the identification process with this age group a bit earlier, while giving the best
young players in the country a more complete slate of National Team programming.
The camps will likely feature 36 players in May, 48 players in August and 36 players in September and will
feature the top players born in 1998. Players are identified through scores of U.S. Soccer Training Centers
being staged across the country all year long, and through other youth soccer development programs, ODP,
id2, etc. The players are identified and selected by U.S. Soccer’s National Staff coaches and a select group
of scouts from throughout the United States.
U.S. Soccer started the U.S. Under-14 National Development Program in August of 1997 knowing that in
order to continue to compete with the elite countries on the international level the U.S. would have to build
a base of soccer players from the youth level up. The Under-14 program introduces the USA’s top young
players to a level of soccer they would not otherwise experience at this point in their careers, as well as giving
them international games that are invaluable in their development.
In the summer of 2011, two Under-14 Identification Camps were held (the 15th camp for the boys and 13th
for the girls) as U.S. Soccer continued to focus on its commitment of identifying the top players and
developing them to help them move up the National Teams’ ladder. The 2011 Under-14 Girls’ Identification
Camp, under the direction of Ellis, took place for the second time in Portland, Ore., as 80 girls were put
through the training sessions and games.
At the previous U.S. Under-14 Girls’ Identification Camp, players trained in the morning with select National
Staff coaches. In the afternoon, they played matches against one another. The evening consisted of
programming designed to introduce the athletes to the National Team environment and how to prepare
themselves for potential call-ups to national teams in the future.
Former and current Women’s National Team players were invited to the camps to speak about their
experiences and to work with the players and this will continue in 2012.
The ID camps have been an important part of the girls’ first experience of representing their country in a
competitive training situation, as will the newly-instituted three training camps for this age group. They will
also have the opportunity to improve their playing abilities by competing against the best players and being
instructed by USSF-licensed coaches.
After the Girls’ Under-14 Identification Camp in 2007, for the first time a pool of 36 players, divided into two
teams, was selected to compete in the 2008 Girls’ Nike Friendlies and were coached by Mike Dickey. These
matches gave the U.S. Soccer staff coaches a chance to evaluate the players in game situations before they
began to play with the U-15 Girls’ National Team at the beginning of 2008. That same format of holding one
event for U-14s in the fall after the ID camp was applied in 2009, 2010 and 2011, but instead the 36 players
were brought into a training camp environment. In 2012, the training camp format will be expanded in lieu
of the summer ID camp.
Now in 2012, all of the important educational elements of the ID Camp will be maintained across the three
U-14 Girls’ National Team camps that will see as many as 100 players exposed to the National Team for the
first time.
The girls’ program has helped to produce numerous players who have made an impact on the older levels of
the Women’s National Team. Heather O’Reilly and Lindsay Tarpley, both 2002 U-19 Women’s World Cup
Champions, members of the Women’s National Team and 2004 and 2008 Olympic gold medalists, attended
U-14 National team camp at the beginning of their careers. Other well-known names in the WNT program
that began their international careers as U-14s include Lori Chalupny, Leslie Osborne and Tobin Heath, as
well as 2008 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup Team members Amber Brooks, Vicki DiMartino, Kristie Mewis
and Sam Mewis.

In recent years, the United States’ play at the Youth National Team level has confirmed its status as the top
nation for youth soccer in CONCACAF as well as one of the best in the world. The U.S. Under-14 National
Team program has been in existence since 1997 when the boys held their first camp (the girls started in
1999), and this programming is a major reason for the increasing quantity and quality of young players vying
for spots on the numerous U.S. Youth National Teams.

Up until and including the 1988 Seoul Games, the Olympic soccer tournament was an unrestricted event,
and thus the U.S. Olympic Soccer Team was essentially the U.S. National Team. However, the tournament
structure has changed since that time, and the restrictions on age and experience of players involved in
Olympic competition has been under review by FIFA, who makes all tournament recommendations to the
International Olympic Committee (IOC).
The 1992 Barcelona Games proved to be the turning point in the Olympic soccer tournament, when the
tournament was competed as an under-23 event for the first time. Host Spain captured the title at
Barcelona's famed Nou Camp Stadium in front of 95,000 jubilant fans. Spain's progress in the tournament
aided struggling attendances in 1992, which were far lower than expected. There is little doubt that the
poor attendance in Spain played a role in the changes made for the 1996 Atlanta Games.
Not only did Atlanta '96 signify the first time women's soccer was included in the Olympic Program, but
the men's tournament was adapted from its under-23 format in 1992 to include three "overage" players.
"Overage" players were those players who were either over 23 years of age or had previously played in an
Olympic Games soccer tournament. Claudio Reyna (who was age eligible in 1996, but had competed for
the U.S. in 1992), Kasey Keller and Alexi Lalas were the USA's overage players in 1996.
In 2000, veteran defenders Jeff Agoos and Frankie Hejduk, as well as goalkeeper Brad Friedel, were
selected as the USA's overage players, helping the team on an unprecedented tournament run which saw
the U.S. advance to the medal round before falling in the semifinals to a strong Spanish team.
The U.S. Women’s National Team claimed the inaugural gold medal at the Atlanta Games with a 2-1 victory
over China before 76,481 fans on Aug. 1, 1996 in Athens, Ga. The attendance mark, which at the time was
the largest crowd to ever watch a women's athletic event, set the stage for the incredibly successful Women’s
World Cup staged in the U.S. in 1999. The gold medal victory culminated an impressive five-game
undefeated run through the tournament in which the U.S. Women played in front of packed crowds.
As they did in 1996, the U.S. Women had a strong run to the medal stand in 2000, winning the “Group
of Death” that included China, Nigeria and Norway. In the Gold Medal match, a spunky Norwegian team
refused to yield and eventually took home the gold with a thrilling 3-2 overtime triumph.
The 2004 Athens Games were a fitting end for a number of U.S. veterans, including Mia Hamm, Julie
Foudy and Joy Fawcett, who went out of the sport as they came into it: as champions. The never-say-die
team won both their semifinal and final matches in overtime, courtesy of a Heather O’Reilly strike against
Germany and an Abby Wambach goal against Brazil to claim the gold.
Four years later, the U.S. came into the Olympics without Wambach, the team’s top scorer who broke her
leg in a preparation match. With Pia Sundhage leading the team into her first World Championship as head
coach, a new class of players including Hope Solo, Carli Lloyd and surprise leading scorer Angela Hucles
led the team to gold with a 1-0 victory over Brazil.

For the 2008 Olympics in China, Brian McBride agreed to come out of international retirement and
captained a team that included Under-23 stars Sacha Kljestan and Freddy Adu, who had paced the U.S.
through qualifying. After a 1-0 victory against Japan in the first game, the U.S. was minutes away from
upsetting the Netherlands, reigning European champions, but had to settle for a 2-2 tie after giving up a
late free kick goal. In the third group game, eventual runners up Nigeria took advantage of a third-minute
red card by Michael Orozco Fiscal and held on for 2-1 win to send the U.S. home despite earning four points.

U.S. Women’s National Team – Olympic finals record: 17-2-3
The first official men’s Olympic soccer tournament dates back to the 1908 London Games, where Great
Britain defeated Denmark to claim the first soccer gold medal. Since that time, soccer has been part of
every Olympic Games Program, with the exception of the 1932 Los Angeles Games. The 1940 and 1944
Olympic Games were canceled completely due to the political tensions surrounding World War II.

After scheduling conflicts kept the United States from competing in the 2003 games in Santo Domingo in the
Dominican Republic, U.S. Soccer was able to return to the competition at the 2007 event in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The U.S. Men’s team was represented by head coach Bob Jenkins’ Under-18 Men’s National Team, and after opening
the tournament with a strong 2-1 win over Venezuela, the U.S. then dropped their next two games to be eliminated.
In their second match, the U.S. led Bolivia 2-0 at the half, only to lose 4-2. Against Mexico in their final group game,
the team’s were tied 0-0 with 15 minutes remaining when the U.S. were reduced to 10 men, eventually losing 2-0.
The U.S. Under-20 Women’s National Team had a very strong run into the tournament finals, behind a blistering sixgoal tournament from Lauren Cheney (U.S. Soccer’s Young Female Athlete of the Year in 2007). After winning their
group with a 2-1-0 record, head coach Jill Ellis’ U-20s defeated the full Canadian Women’s National Team 2-1 in
the semifinal, then lost to a steamrolling full Brazilian Women’s National Team 5-0 in the final (Brazil outscored their
opposition 33-0 in five games in preparation for the 2007 Women’s World Cup).
In 1999, the U.S. Under-23 National Team competed in the men's tournament, while the U.S. Under-18 Women's
National Team represented the U.S. in the women's competition. In the 1999 tournament (held in Winnipeg,
Canada), the U.S. Men captured the second Pan Am Games Bronze Medal in their history with a 2-1 victory over the
Canada in the third-place match.
Carlos Bocanegra and young Landon Donovan led the USA with goals in that match. The Under-23 Men, which were
represented by U.S. stars from the U-23, U-20 and U-17 levels did well to rebound from a disappointing 1995
tournament by taking home the bronze.
The women's U-18 squad captured gold medal in the first-ever Pan American Women's Final with a hard-fought 10 win over an older Mexican squad. The U.S. women dominated their opponents throughout the tournament, going
undefeated in six games (5-0-1) and outscoring their opposition 22-2.
The first Pan American Games were held in 1951, but its history goes back two decades earlier. In 1932, the South
American delegation of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) proposed the formation of an organization to
promote amateur sports in the Americas. The idea led to the first Pan American Sports Congress in Buenos Aires,
Argentina, in 1940. The 16 countries represented at the meeting formed the Pan American Sports Committee, and
agreed to hold the first Pan American Games in 1942 in Buenos Aires, but World War II forced their postponement.
The idea stayed alive, and the first Pan American Games finally opened in Buenos Aires on February 25, 1951. The
organization governing the Games was renamed the Pan American Sports Organization (PASO) and is made up of
nations of North, Central and South America and the Caribbean.
The soccer tournament at the Pan American Games has never enjoyed a very high profile perhaps because in the
past competing nations have not sent their strongest team. The one exception was the 1975 Games in Mexico City,
when 110,000 spectators turned out at Azteca Stadium to watch the final between Mexico and Brazil.
Like many of the competing nations, the United States has used the competition as a preparation for the Olympic Games.
In 1991, the U.S. won its only Pan American gold medal in soccer in Havana, Cuba, defeating Mexico 2-1 in overtime.
Current U.S. National Team midfielder Joe-Max Moore scored a sensational free kick to win that game for the Americans.

2006 WOMEN’S GOLD CUP (Carson, Calif., Miami, Fla., USA)
WNT PROGRAMS
WNT HISTORY
The 2006 edition of the CONCACAF Women’s Gold Cup was staged from November 19-26, 2006, in two
U.S. venues. The six-team tournament began on November 19 with two first round matches at Tropical
Park Stadium in Miami, Fla., with Jamaica and Mexico advancing to the tournament semifinals with
victories over Panama (2-0) and Trinidad & Tobago (3-0), respectively.
In the semifinals at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., a direct berth to the 2007 Women's World
Cup in China was on the line for four teams. After watching Canada down Jamaica 4-0 to advance, the
U.S. squared off against Mexico. Behind two goals from Abby Wambach, the U.S. Women were able to ease
their way into China.
CONCACAF WOMEN’S
GOLD CUP HISTORY
Born out the success of the 1999 Women’s World Cup, the first CONCACAF Women’s Gold Cup was played
in 2000 in the United States. The tournament has been staged two more times (in 2002 and 2006), with
each of those events also doubling as qualifying for the FIFA Women’s World Cup.
2000 WOMEN’S GOLD CUP (Hershey, Pa., Louisville, Ky., Foxborough, Mass., USA)
The U.S. crown came via a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Brazil in the finals played at Foxboro Stadium on
July 3, 2000. Tiffeny Milbrett scored the game’s only goal after the two teams had fought to a 0-0 draw in
their opening round finale, one of three consecutive shutouts for the U.S. in the first round. The USA
actually won Group A only after winning the final tiebreaker over Brazil (a coin flip after the teams finished
even on results and goals).
2002 WOMEN’S GOLD CUP
(Victoria, Canada; Seattle, Wash., Fullerton & Pasadena, Calif., USA)
With the tournament doubling as 2003 Women’s World Cup qualifying, the 2002 Women’s Gold Cup did
not feature any invited teams. Instead, eight CONCACAF nations battled in four venues in two countries
along the Pacific coast for two guaranteed Women’s World Cup berths and a third playoff spot.
The Americans kicked off first round play in Group A with back-to-back 3-0 shutout victories over Mexico
and Trinidad & Tobago. The U.S. closed out group play with a 9-0 trouncing of Panama in front of a
Women’s Gold Cup record crowd of 21,522 at SAFECO Field in Seattle, Wash.
In the semifinals, the U.S. Women earned both a berth into the 2003 Women’s World Cup and into the
2002 Women’s Gold Cup final with a blistering 7-0 victory over Costa Rica.
With both teams qualified for the 2003 Women’s World Cup, Canada would battle the USA in a classic
match for the 2002 crown. After battling to a 1-1 draw through regulation, U.S. forward Mia Hamm won
the game with a stunning golden goal, handing the U.S. their second consecutive regional title.

Cup Finals against Brazil, who knocked off pre-tournament favorite China PR in the other semifinal game
3-2 in sudden-death overtime. Goalkeeper Siri Mullinix led the USA backline with four shutouts and
allowed just a single goal in five games, while earning Best Goalkeeper honors. Defender Joy Fawcett and
midfielder Julie Foudy were also named to the all-tournament team along with Milbrett.

COMPETITIONS
The inaugural Women’s Gold Cup kicked off in three venues in the United States and included six members
of CONCACAF (Canada, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, USA, Trinidad & Tobago) and two invited teams
(Brazil, China PR). The U.S. dominated tournament play, going unbeaten in five games
(4-0-1) and adding another international championship to its trophy case.
In the tournament's final game, the United States and Mexico staged an epic battle, eventually won in
overtime by the USA 2-1 on the last kick of the game, a penalty kick by Kristine Lilly in stoppage time
of overtime. The 2-1 victory in extra time was reminiscent of the USA’s 2002 victory over Canada on a
Golden Goal.

ALGARVE CUP
In 2005, the USA put together one of its most impressive Algarve Cup runs ever, winning all four games for
just the second time and for the first time did not allow a goal. The USA withstood a second-half onslaught
from Germany to triumph 1-0 in the title game on a goal from Christie Welsh.
In the 2006, the USA and Germany met again for the title, and despite a dominating performance by the
Americans, the match went to penalty kicks where Germany prevailed to take the title.
Algarve Cup History
For almost 18 years, the annual Algarve Cup on the southern coast of Portugal has been a constant in the
USA’s March schedule. The tournament has grown from humble beginnings to become one of the most
competitive women’s events in the world, surpassed only by the European championships, the Women’s World
Cup and the Olympics.
The trip and tournament have become one of the favorites for the U.S. players and staff, not only for the scenic
surroundings, excellent food and great weather, but also for the world class matches and tournament format
that sends only the group champions to the title game, making every match and goal vitally important.
The USA has a 46-9-8 all-time Algarve Cup record through the 2011 tournament. The U.S. Women’s National
Team has lost just 55 total games in its 26-year history, meaning 16 percent of those losses have come at the
Algarve Cup, a stat representative of the difficulty of this competition. Several U.S. players have won the MVP
award at the Algarve Cup including Shannon Boxx (twice), Tiffeny Milbrett and most recently Carli Lloyd.
In 2001, the USA brought a very young team to the tournament as all the veterans were preparing for the first
WUSA season, and the team had its worst performance, losing three games and getting a lone win over host
Portugal. That tournament was marked by an amazing match in which the U.S. novices built a 3-1 lead over
Olympic champion Norway in the match for fifth place only to watch it slip away as the Scandinavians roared
back to score three times in the final 17 minutes.
The 2002 Algarve Cup was also an odd one as the USA got a win, a tie and a loss in group play as Shannon
MacMillan put on one of the best Algarve Cup performances in U.S. history, scoring seven of the USA’s eight
total goals, including all three in the 3-2 win against Denmark to take fifth place.
The U.S. Women started their current run of success in southern Portugal in 2003, defeating China PR in the
championship game on goals from MacMillan and Mia Hamm, who also assisted on each other’s score. In
2004, the team lost a first-round game to Sweden 3-1 but advanced to the championship game on goal
difference and pounded Norway 4-1 for the title as Abby Wambach scored a hat trick. This tournament also
marked the first time Algarve Cup matches were played at the beautiful Stadium Algarve, an ultra-modern
facility built for the 2004 European Championships. Up until that point, all the games were played at small
stadiums all over the Algarve coast, many of which still host games to this day, even though the Stadium Algarve
is used for a few matches every year.

U.S. HISTORY & INFO
Impressively, the USA has won seven of the last nine Algarve Cups through 2011, but in the early years the
tournament was the bugaboo of the U.S. team as the Americans won the title just once in their first eight
trips. The USA first attended in 1994 and 1995, missed the 1996 competition to prepare for the Atlanta
Olympics and then was not invited in 1997. Those first four trips to Portugal produced no first place trophies
before the USA finally broke through in 2000 with a 1-0 win against Norway in the title game on a goal from
Brandi Chastain.
In 2010, the USA won all four games including consecutive wins against Norway, Sweden and Germany in
the championship game, a 3-2 victory in muddy conditions. Lauren Cheney had a breakout tournament,
scoring four times, including the winning goal in the title game. In 2011, the USA once again won all four
games, stretching its Algarve Cup unbeaten streak (in regulation) to a record 29 matches. In the
championship game, the U.S. met surprise finalist Iceland and fell behind 2-1 before roaring back for a 4-2
victory. Alex Morgan and Lloyd both scored three times in the tournament, with Morgan taking the Top Scorer
award due to playing fewer minutes.
COMPETITIONS
The Algarve Cup is organized jointly by the Portuguese Football Association and the FA of a Nordic country,
which rotate responsibility on a yearly basis. The first year the tournament was held in 1994, just six teams
participated. It moved to eight teams the following year and stayed in that format until 2002, when a Group C
was added to increase the competition to 12 nations. Since then, the tournament has featured four match days
with six games each day, the final of which are the placement matches. The teams in Group A and B compete
for the title as the group winners play in the championship game. The two second-place finishers in Groups A
and B play for third place while the third-place finishers play for fifth. The Group C teams compete for a chance
to play for spots 7-11 as the winner of Group C play the best fourth place team from Groups A and B. The
second-place team in Group C plays the fourth-place team from Groups A or B and the third and fourth place
teams in Group C play each other for a second time.
After wining every game at the tournament only twice in the first 11 trips, the USA won all four matches in
2007 and 2008, going undefeated in group play and then beating Denmark for the title 2-0 in 2007 on goals
from Kristine Lilly and Carli Lloyd and 2-1 in 2008, on goals from Natasha Kai and Abby Wambach. In 2009,
the USA had one of lowest goal scoring outputs at the tournament, finding the net just five times, but still made
the championship game. In that title match, the USA trailed Sweden 1-0 until the final seconds of regulation
before Shannon Boxx equalized. A new tournament rule meant that the teams would not play overtime and the
match went directly to penalty kicks, where the USA fell 4-3.

The FIFA Women’s World Cup has been contested on six occasions with the USA earning two championships
(China ’91 and USA ’99), Germany two (USA ’03 and China ‘07) and Norway (Sweden ’95) and Japan
(Germany ’11) one each. The 2007 Women’s World Cup featured 16 teams for the third time, after seeing
12 compete in both 1991 and 1995. China hosted the most recent Women’s World Cup in 2007, four years
after the event was moved to the USA following an outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. The U.S.
came agonizingly close to winning its third title in 2011, losing to Japan in penalty kicks. More detailed
information on the Women’s World Cup can be found in the U.S. Women’s National Team media guide.

FIFA WORLD CUP
The FIFA World Cup has been played 18 times since the first competition in 1930 in Uruguay. The
tournament has grown in stature over the years and has become not only the biggest sporting event in the
world, but also simply the biggest event in the world every four years. Outside of the USA’s third-place finish
in the inaugural tournament, the team’s quarterfinal run in 2002 is the team’s best ever World Cup finish.
WNT HISTORY
The Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) currently conducts
eight major outdoor soccer world championships played at the international level.
Those tournaments are the FIFA World Cup, the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the
Men’s Olympic Football Tournament, the Women’s Olympic Football Tournament,
the FIFA Under-20 World Cup, the FIFA Under-17 World Cup, the FIFA Under-20
Women’s World Cup and the FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup. Additionally, FIFA
also conducts the Futsal World Cup every four years, and the Beach Soccer World
Cup annually. A quick synopsis of these tournaments is listed below. More detail
can be found on USA performances at each of these tournaments throughout the
2012 U.S. Men’s National Team Media Guide and the 2012 U.S. Women’s
National Team Media Guide.

OLYMPIC FOOTBALL TOURNAMENTS
FIFA UNDER-20 WORLD CUP
After competing as an exhibition sport at the 1900 and 1904 Olympic Games, soccer became the first
team sport included in the Olympics with the first official tournament dating back to the 1908 London
Games when the United Kingdom defeated Denmark to claim the gold medal. Since that time soccer has
been part of every Olympic Games program except the 1932 event in the United States.
Contested every two years, the FIFA Under-20 World Cup is restricted to players under 20 years of age. The tournament was
renamed from the FIFA World Youth Championship in 2006. The U.S. has qualified for the tournament on 11 occasions,
finishing fourth in 1989 (Saudi Arabia). At the most recent qualifying tournament in 2011 in Guatemala, the U.S. won its group
and kept clean sheets against Suriname and Panama but lost in the quarterfinals to Guatemala and were eliminated. That
performance came eight years after forward Eddie Johnson became the first U.S. player to win a Golden Boot at a FIFA World
Championship. The U.S. has won its group in four of the last five tournaments. In 2011, Brazil won its fifth title.
On the women’s side, the sport was not introduced into the Olympics until the 1996 competition in the
United States. The U.S. claimed the inaugural gold medal in women’s Olympic football by defeating China
2-1 on Aug. 1, 1996, in front of a capacity crowd of 76,481 fans in Athens, Ga.
The growth of professional football after World War II meant that some of the best players were not eligible
to compete in the Olympics. Nevertheless, the Olympic Tournament retained its vitality as the forum for
the amateur game. In 1952, Hungary’s great generation with players such as Grosics, Czibor, Puskas and
Kocsis won the tournament in Helsinki. After that and until Los Angeles in 1984 all the Olympic titles went
to Eastern Europe, a span of eight straight tournaments.
When the Olympics moved into their modern open era, FIFA was obliged to reconsider its position for the
Barcelona 1992 tournament, where for the first time the tournament was restricted to Under-23 national
teams. In 1996, FIFA altered the U-23 designation slightly, allowing teams to add three overage players
into the mix, a rule that was still in effect for the 2004 Olympiad.
Through the 1928 Olympics in Holland, Olympic caps were counted as full international appearances, but
that designation changed with the advent of the World Cup in 1930. Although the Olympic Games football
tournament actually falls under the realm of the International Olympic Committee, FIFA presides over the
event on behalf of the IOC.

Renamed as the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup in 2006, the tournament was staged as a U-20 event for the first time in
2006, after two initial tournaments were played as an Under-19 tournament. The inaugural FIFA U-19 Women’s World
Championship was held in Canada from Aug. 17-Sept. 1, 2002, with 12 teams from around the world competing in the event.
The inaugural tournament was an incredible success, with the USA capturing the first championship via a Lindsay Tarpley golden
goal in a 1-0 victory in front of 47,784 fans in Edmonton, Canada. The U.S. was unable to defend their crown in 2004, losing
to Germany in the semifinals in Thailand, and in 2006 finished out of the top three for the first time in their history. In 2008,
however, Golden Ball winner Sydney Leroux and Silver Ball winner Alex Morgan returned the U.S. to glory.

FIFA UNDER-17 WORLD CUP
The Under-17 World Championship is contested every two years for players under 17 years of age. The U.S. is the only
country in the world to qualify for every U-17 World Championship, dating back to the tournament’s inception in 1985. The
first three tournaments were actually played as U-16 World Championship Tournaments, but FIFA changed the event to its
present U-17 status in 1989. The CONCACAF region hosted the tournament for a second time in 2001, when Trinidad &
Tobago served as the first-ever Caribbean host for a FIFA World Championship. Through 2009, the U.S. has finished among
the top five in the tournament in three of the last six events. Mexico became the first CONCACAF team to win an outdoor
men’s world championship in 2005 with an impressive triumph in Peru. In 2011, the U.S. advanced to the knockout round
for the seventh time but was eliminated after falling to Germany in the first Round of 16 game.

FIFA FUTSAL WORLD CUP
The FIFA Futsal World Cup has been contested six times with Brazil winning the first three tournaments,
and Spain winning two championships in 2000 and 2004 before Brazil returned to glory as hosts in 2008.
Spain ended Brazil’s run in Guatemala in 2000 and then added to their trophy case with a victory in
Chinese Taipei in 2004. The Futsal World Cup is the only indoor tournament hosted by FIFA. The 1992
second-place finish was the best-ever showing in a FIFA event by a U.S. men’s team, and came on the
heels of a third-place finish in 1989.

FIFA BEACH SOCCER WORLD CUP
Beach soccer became a part of the FIFA family in 2005 when the first-ever FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup
was staged on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro. To everyone's surprise, France defeated Portugal in the
final, while Brazil fell in the semis. A new location in 2008 and 2009 couldn’t keep Brazil from the fourpeat. 2011 marked the first time the competition was played biennially, and Russia upended Brazil in the
final to win the Championship for the first time.

FIFA CONFEDERATIONS CUP
The FIFA Confederations Cup was contested under FIFA’s auspices for the first time in 1997 and replaced
the Intercontinental Championship, which was staged in 1992 and 1995. Each of these three tournaments
was held in Saudi Arabia. In 1999 the Confederations Cup was held in Mexico and it returned to Asia in
2001, where it was staged as a precursor to the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea Republic and Japan.
Defending World Cup and European champion France added to their trophy case by winning the 2001
tournament, and would repeat as champions hosting the event in 2003.

U.S. SOCCER ATHLETES OF THE YEAR
U.S. SOCCER ATHLETES OF THE YEAR
The Male Athlete of the Year honor is the second for Dempsey, who previously won the award in 2007. Dempsey becomes the
fourth men’s player to earn the honor at least two times, with Landon Donovan (2003, 2004, 2009, 2009, 2010), Kasey
Keller (1997, 1999, 2005) and Marcelo Balboa (1992, 1994) also garnering the award on multiple occasions. Wambach won
the award for the fifth time in her career and for the second straight year. Wambach matches Mia Hamm for earning the award
five times, as Hamm garnered Female Athlete of the Year from 1994-98.
The U.S. Soccer Athlete of the Year awards have a longer history than any major award in American soccer – more than 20
years. They join the FIFA Players of the Year as the only two awards to honor both the top male and the top female in the sport.
As in years past, online votes registered at ussoccer.com counted for 50 percent of the total votes, while the other 50 percent
was represented by votes compiled from members of the national media and U.S. Soccer representatives, including National
Team coaches and the members of the U.S. Soccer Board of Directors. A player can only win the Young Athlete award once
in his or her career.

U.S. SOCCER FEMALE ATHLETE OF THE YEAR: ABBY WAMBACH
After missing several games early in the year due to nagging injuries, Wambach rebounded to
have a year to remember. Wambach tallied a goal in the final four games of the 2011 FIFA
Women’s World Cup and kept alive her streak of leading the USA in scoring in every world
championship in which she has competed. Wambach scored in the final group match against
Sweden and then scored the most dramatic goal in Women’s World Cup history against Brazil in
the dying moments of overtime to send the game to penalty kicks. She won the Silver Ball as
the second best player in the tournament and the Bronze Boot as the third-leading scorer. She
also was named to the FIFA Women’s World Cup All-Star Team. Her four goals in Germany gave
her 13 in the Women’s World Cup for her career, moving her past the legendary Michelle Akers
into first on the all-time list.
U.S. SOCCER YOUNG MALE ATHLETE OF THE YEAR: BREK SHEA
The first player born in the 1990s to earn a cap for the U.S. Men’s National Team, Shea had
a breakout year on both an international and a professional level. With eight caps in 2011,
he was one of three players to feature in all of Jurgen Klinsmann’s games as head coach. The
tireless midfielder started during a 1-1 draw against Mexico and contributed an assist on
Robbie Rogers’ equalizer. With FC Dallas, Shea scored 11 goals in his 31 appearances, with
30 of those starts, to help the team into playoff contention. Since making his MLS debut last
year, Shea has quickly become a fan favorite, while his talent and work ethic have
consistently impressed the critics. He was named to the MLS Best XI and nominated for MLS
Most Valuable Player. He also spent a month in the offseason training with Arsenal and played
for the reserve team in London, England.
U.S. SOCCER YOUNG FEMALE ATHLETE OF THE YEAR: SYDNEY LEROUX
The 5-foot-7 forward had an impact senior year at UCLA, scoring 16 goals with three assists
while leading the team to a 16-1-4 record. Leroux played with both the full U.S. Women’s
National Team and the U.S. Under-23 Women’s National Team in 2011, a year that saw her
log significant training time with the senior side, as well as earn her first cap. The USA’s alltime leading scorer in Under-20 Women’s World Cup play traveled with the USA to the Four
Nations Tournament last January in China, where she debuted against Sweden. She was one
of two college players who attended the USA’s final training camp before the 2011 FIFA
Women’s World Cup team was chosen and is one of just a handful of college players in the mix
at the end of 2011 vying for spots on the team that will participate in January’s CONCACAF
qualifying tournament for the 2012 Olympics.

The USA’s most dynamic and creative attacker also has become one of its most consistent in
big games. Dempsey led U.S. scorers in the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup with three goals,
including strikes in the quarterfinal against Jamaica and the game-winner in the semifinal
against Panama. Earning Budweiser Man of the Match five times, Dempsey also delivered the
first victory under new head coach Jürgen Klinsmann, scoring the lone goal during a 1-0 victory
against Honduras. Already north of 80 appearances for the United States, Dempsey’s 24 career
goals are good for a fourth-place tie on the all-time U.S. goal scoring charts. Dempsey has
proven equally lethal for Fulham, setting a club record for career goals in the English Premier
League. He is now the highest-scoring American in Premier League history, passing Brian
McBride’s 36 goals in early December.

2011 BEST OF
U.S. SOCCER
AWARDS
After the U.S. Women’s National Team’s impressive run in the
2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup, it was no surprise that the
Women captured the majority of 2011’s Best of U.S. Soccer
votes. Fans chose the winners for the 10th consecutive year of the
awards through an interactive voting module on U.S. Soccer’s
Facebook page.
The U.S. Women claimed a resounding seven of the 10 awards, with four of them – Best Assist, Best Goal,
Best Performance: Team and Best Performance: Player – revolving around the dramatic quarterfinal win
against Brazil in which a last-gasp U.S. goal sent the game into overtime and a penalty shootout.
Best Fan Tribute and Best Off the Field Moment were both comprised of entirely U.S. WNT-related
choices. Several U.S. Women’s fans, including U.S. Men’s National Team forward C.J. Sapong, created
songs inspired by their favorite players. The Best Off the Field Moment pitted some of the team’s best
Women’s World Cup exploits against each other, such as post-World Cup media visits and Hope Solo on
Dancing With the Stars.
The USA’s incredible win against Brazil earned the Women 82 percent of the votes – the largest margin of
victory in any categroty – to win Best Performance: Team. After Rachel Buehler was sent off in the 65th
minute, the U.S. rallied for more than 55 minutes with 10 players to come from behind and equalize in
the final seconds of overtime stoppage time. The U.S. converted all five of its shots in the resulting penalty
kick shootout, and Hope Solo saved a Brazil penalty for a U.S. win of 5-3.

PRESIDENTIAL GREETING: U.S. Soccer
President Sunil Gulati is greeted by
FIFA President Sepp Blatter at FIFA
House in Zürich, Switzerland.
As a highly regarded instructor in the economics department at Columbia University, Gulati balances his
academic work with numerous responsibilities within the sport worldwide.
He held the position of Major League Soccer’s Deputy Commissioner from its launch until 1999 before
becoming the President of Kraft Soccer Properties, a position he served in until 2011. He remains a special
advisor to The Kraft Sports Group and the Kraft Family.
Before stepping into his role as President, he served as the U.S. Soccer’s Executive Vice President from 2000
to 2006. He has held numerous other positions for U.S. Soccer, including Managing Director of National
Teams, Chairman of the International Games Committee, Chairman of the Technical Committee and served
on the bid committee for the 1994 FIFA World Cup.
He was also the original Managing Director of U.S. Soccer’s Project 2010 and served as Chairman of both
U.S. Cup '92 and U.S. Cup ’93, two events that helped showcase U.S. Soccer’s rise and prepare the
federation for the upcoming 1994 FIFA World Cup. Additionally, Gulati served on the Board of Directors of
FIFA Women’s World Cup USA 1999 and 2003.
Currently, Gulati is a member of the Board for the U.S. Soccer Foundation, the CONCACAF Executive
Committee and represents U.S. Soccer as Chairman of CONCACAF National Team Competitions Committee.
At the FIFA level, Gulati has served on the FIFA Confederations Cup Committee, the Strategic Committee, and
currently serves on the FIFA Ticketing Subcommittee. In 2011, he was selected to be the FIFA Task Force
Football 2014, a 22-member panel that reviews proposals to improve both the attractiveness of football and
match control in elite competitions. He was also named to the newly formed Independent Governance
Committee, a group which will make recommendations for the governance changes within the FIFA structure.
Gulati graduated Magna Cum Laude from Bucknell University and earned his M.A. and M. Phil. in Economics
at Columbia University. He served on the Columbia Economics Faculty from 1986 to 1990 before joining the
World Bank through its Young Professionals Program in 1991 and serving as a country economist for the
emerging country of Moldova.
Gulati, 52 and his wife, Marcela, have one son, Emilio, and one daughter, Sofia. They live in New York City.

DANIEL T. FLYNN
CEO / SECRETARY GENERAL
U.S. SOCCER
Dan Flynn learned about winning soccer championships as a product of the famed St. Louis, Mo., soccer
scene, eventually becoming a collegiate standout at St. Louis University and helping to guide the
Billikens to a 1973 NCAA soccer championship.
As U.S. Soccer’s CEO / Secretary General since June 15, 2000, Flynn has taken his lessons learned from
the field and applied them administratively at the sport’s highest level to help spur the United States
Soccer Federation’s growth into one of the most respected national governing bodies in the country.
Through his tireless efforts, Flynn has been responsible for instilling the groundwork for U.S. Soccer’s
success in the new millennium.
During the summer of 2003 Flynn served as the Chief Executive Officer of the FIFA Women’s World Cup
USA 2003, putting his strong business background to work in preparing the framework to help the Local
Organizing Committee successfully stage the tournament. With attendance peaking above 350,000
despite just four months to organize the event, the tournament was the most financially profitable
Women’s World Cup ever.
Flynn was a part of the amazing growth of Anheuser-Busch, where he served in numerous capacities both
domestically and internationally. He was also directly involved in Anheuser-Busch’s sponsorship of the
1986 World Cup in Mexico, which served as the springboard for their future involvement in the sport on
a long-term basis.
A graduate from St. Louis University, Flynn was a star defender at SLU from 1973 to 1977, helping the
Billikens to an NCAA championship in 1973 and to a runner-up finish in 1974. Born Jan. 20, 1955, in
St. Louis, Mo., he is married to Cathy and the couple has three daughters (Lauren, Anneliese and Erin).
The U.S. Soccer Federation’s referee membership ranks among the largest of all FIFA nations with over
140,000 registered officials, including assessors, assignors and instructors. Officials are registered with
U.S. Soccer and work sanctioned games at all levels of the sport including youth, adult, professional and
international matches.
In addition to assignments at the FIFA and the CONCACAF levels, a major role of the U.S. Soccer Referee
Department is to train and assign referees for the professional game in the United States. This includes
Major League Soccer, Women’s Professional Soccer, North American Soccer League and USL Pro. Last
year, referees worked over 300 MLS matches and over 50 WPS matches.
Significant organizational changes were initiated in late 2010 that saw the U.S. Soccer Referee
Department create separate offices to service the amateur and professional game. The amateur office
remains located at Soccer House in Chicago and the new professional office is based in New York at MLS
headquarters. The location of the professional office allows an improved focus on the referee assignments,
evaluation and training reserved for professional and international competitions.
REFEREE DEVELOPMENT
In 2011 the U.S. Soccer Referee Department will have a renewed focus on instruction and training for
introductory level referees. A four-person panel of referee experts, including Soccer Hall of Fame referee
Alfred Kleinaitis, will be managed by a newly created position, the Manager of Referee Education
Resources. The other four members of the panel are Nate Clement, Gregory Barkey and Michael Kennedy
who each have extensive experience as referees and instructors. This advisory panel will collaborate with
U.S. Soccer’s state associations and membership to develop new educational strategies with an emphasis
on finding ways to improve referee education through new media and online learning.
PROFESSIONAL REFEREES
After hiring full time referees for the first time in 2007, U.S. Soccer has continued its commitment to the
professional level by creating a new office to focus on the management of elite referees for the professional
game. Herb Silva managed the professional referees throughout the 2011 season as the Director of
Professional Referees and Sandra Serafini was hired as the Professional Women’s Referee Coordinator to
manage the development and training of professional and international female officials.
The Professional Referee Department also adopted radical changes in the management of officials based
on best practices from around the world. The department created a Command Center to evaluate all of the
MLS games in real time, implemented referee teams to increase the number of assignments among highly
compatible officials, shifted from an assessment based evaluation process to a coaching based process and
developed seven rookie referees, who worked almost 20% of all MLS games last season. At the same time,
the Professional Referee Department increased its commitment to new technologies, including behavioral
evaluation, Polar heart rate monitoring and comprehensive data analysis.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
For two years, the 57-year-old Flynn served as Executive Director of the U.S. Soccer Foundation, where
he was responsible for the organization’s overall management. Prior to joining the Foundation, he played
key roles at both World Cup 1994, serving as the Venue Director in Chicago, and at U.S. Soccer, where
from 1994 to 1998 he managed the governing body’s day-to-day operations at the Federation
headquarters in Chicago.
U.S. SOCCER
REFEREE DEPARTMENT
COMPETITIONS
In his more than 11 years as the organization’s CEO, Flynn has overhauled U.S. Soccer’s business
framework, leading to among other things the development and construction of U.S. Soccer’s National
Training Center at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., which opened in June 2003. With a renewed
focus on National Team and player development, as well as facility development, more and more
opportunities are arising for youth players of all ages, highlighted by the addition of a number of Youth
National Team programs, an increase to 40 players at the U-17 Men’s National Team’s Residency Program
in Bradenton, Fla., and the creation of the Development Academy Program.
Flynn’s career path has included both sports marketing and management positions at Anheuser-Busch,
as well as more than 17 years of experience within the sport of soccer at World Cup 1994, the U.S.
Soccer Federation and the U.S. Soccer Foundation.

U.S. SOCCER’S
COACHING DEPARTMENT
“A” LICENSE COURSE
AND NATIONAL COACHING SCHOOLS
U.S. Soccer's Coaching Department was established in the early 1970s by famed West German teacher
and coach Dettmar Cramer. It provides for one curriculum and progresses to five levels of certification.
Each level of U.S. Soccer’s National Coaching Programs are designed to meet needs of coaches ranging
from the parent coach, who is usually inexperienced in soccer, to the former professional player who desires
to coach in amateur, professional and international competitions.
U.S. Soccer’s National Coaching Schools continue to provide quality education for coaches in this country,
and currently offers seven levels of certification: (A, B, C, D, E, Youth, and GK). We are committed to
providing soccer coaches with up-to-date theoretical and practical knowledge so coaches can develop to
their full potential. The diagram below shows the current U.S. Soccer National License progression.
213
Length: 9 days – Curriculum Emphasis of the “A” Course:
The National "A" License course is designed to introduce concepts that are targeted toward coaching older
players (older junior level and senior level players). The National "A" License focuses on recognizing the
principles of the game and its technical applications in 11v11 game format and how these principles
influence positional, group and team organization. The course also examines player, team and game
management issues as they relate to the senior level player.
“B” LICENSE COURSE
Length: 9 days – Curriculum Emphasis of the “B” Course:
The National “B” License Course focuses on coaches recognizing the principles of the game and its
technical applications in 9v9 game situations and develops concepts that are targeted toward coaching
players age 16 to college level. Candidates will learn to teach and implement these principles through
functional training sessions leading up to the 9v9 game.
“C” LICENSE COURSE
Length: 9 days – Curriculum Emphasis of the “C” Course:
The National “C” License course is designed to introduce concepts that are targeted toward coaching
players ages 11 – 14, with a primary emphasis on the close relationship between technique and tactics.
The National “C” License course also provides a foundation in the following areas: tactics, technique,
methods of coaching and issues in youth player development.
GOALKEEPING LICENSE
COMPETITIONS
YOUTH LICENSE COURSE (“Y” LICENSE)
Length: 5 days – Curriculum Emphasis of the “Y” Course:
The National Youth License focuses upon the nature of children and the adjustments adults must make to coach
them. The course is an age specific course designed to increase the coaches’ knowledge of the physical, psychological
and social characteristics displayed by children of specific ages from the ages of U-6 to U-12.
The U.S. Soccer National Coaching Schools provide courses in which coaches can earn nationally certified
credentials and take advantage of the opportunities and recognition inherent in the attainment of various
levels of coaching expertise, a proven curriculum which improves a coach’s knowledge of the game and
valuable information on current coaching trends and international developments in the game.
Candidates that attend the national coaching schools (for A, B and C licenses) go through a rigorous nineday schedule of field and classroom sessions, concluding with extensive testing on theoretical and practical
applications of the game. The course is conducted in a residential environment that immerses coaches in
the culture of soccer and emphasizes field instruction in the areas of technique, tactics and fitness. The
course also includes instruction in coaching methodology, team management and sport psychology.
U.S. Soccer has licensed more than 20,000 coaches, in the 40 years since U.S. Soccer’s National
Coaching Schools were first founded and more than 2,500 coaches have earned the premier “A” license.
Additionally, U.S. Soccer’s coaching organization, CoachesNet, currently features 4,000 members.
U.S. Soccer also offers D, E, Youth Modules and Adult Licenses, levels which are available through each
state youth association and the adult license offered by the state adult associations. While the state
associations are responsible for the execution of these courses, the curriculum is developed and overseen
by U.S. Soccer’s Coaching Education Department. For more information on the courses, downloadable
materials are available at ussoccer.com.
The following is an overview of U.S. Soccer’s coaching education programs and the curriculum for each
course offered:
“E” CERTIFICATE COURSE
Length: 18 hours – Curriculum Emphasis of the “E” Certificate:
The “E” Certificate is designed as an entry-level course to provide general instruction to coaching and
organizing your team and covers the elementary principles of coaching.
YOUTH MODULES - LEVEL I, II AND III
Length: Varies by level – Curriculum Emphasis of the Youth Modules:
The curriculum of the youth modules is age specific for the age groups of U-6 to U-12. This course focuses
on preparing the parent coach who has little or no experience in the game of soccer.
ADULT COACHING LICENSE
Length: 20 hours – Curriculum Emphasis of the Adult Coaching License:
The purpose of the Adult Coaching License is to train amateur coaches in current coaching methodology,
team administration and player preparation for all levels of Adult soccer. This course provides USASA
coaches the opportunity to be exposed to topics targeted for their individual team and club needs.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
“D” LICENSE COURSE
Length: 36 hours – Curriculum Emphasis of the “D” Course:
The “D” License course prepares coaches to further develop their players’ technical abilities and their
application within the game, increases their understanding of the Principles of Play and how they are
applied in the game.
COMPETITIONS
Length: 6 days – Curriculum Emphasis of the Goalkeeping Course:
Premiering in January 2006, the Goalkeeping License is intended for goalkeeping coaches, as well as the
more experienced team coach who has never played the goalkeeper position. Candidates will learn how to
plan and manage their goalkeeper’s development over the course of the season as well as learn in-depth
about the technical, tactical, psychological and fitness components of the goalkeeper position.

HOME TO U.S. SOCCER HOUSE
In the tradition of many world soccer federations and the FIFA House in Zurich, the U.S. Soccer
Federation took up residence in two refurbished mansions in Chicago’s Prairie Avenue Historical
District more than 18 years ago. Since dubbed the U.S. Soccer House, the corner of 18th Street
and Prairie Avenue now serves as the American home of the world’s most popular sport.
Formerly located in Colorado Springs, Colo., U.S. Soccer moved their operational base into the
Kimball house at 1801 South Prairie Avenue and the Coleman-Ames house at 1811 South Prairie
Avenue in December of 1991.
Dating back to 1873, Soccer House was built by William Wallace Kimball, founder of Kimball
pianos and organs; Joseph Coleman, president of a hardware manufacturing firm; and Coleman’s
wife, Leonora, who served on the board of the Women’s Christian Association in 1886.
There was a time when Prairie Avenue, from 16th to 22nd streets, was the “Fifth Avenue” of the
Midwest. The area is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the men and women who
helped shape the industrialization of the Midwest and in 1979 it was designated an historical
district.

U.S. SOCCER NATIONAL
TRAINING CENTER
WNT HISTORY
U.S. Soccer’s National Training Center at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., stands as one of the great
achievements in the organization’s almost 100-year history. What started as a vision in 1999 became a reality
with its construction in 2003, and is now widely-hailed as the future of the sport in the United States.
Coleman-Ames House
Prairie Avenue Historical District
Construction of Prairie Avenue began after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 when Pullman became
the first millionaire to move to the area, building the grandest of Prairie Avenue mansions in 1873.
Friends of Pullman followed his lead and also built extravagant homes on Prairie Avenue. The
Marshall Field House was the first in
the neighborhood to be electrically lit.
Located on the campus of California State University, Dominguez Hills, the National Training Center includes
four grass soccer fields, two FieldTurf soccer fields and a general training area. The complex also includes
three additional practice fields for Chivas USA, the Galaxy and the college, as well as all the necessary team
support facilities, including locker rooms, a training room, a weight room and office space for staff. U.S.
Soccer has approximately a dozen full-time staff working out of The National Training Center.
In a very short time, The Home Depot Center established itself as the center of the soccer world in the United
States, and was the main reason the United States was able to serve as an emergency host for the 2003 FIFA
Women’s World Cup. The facility hosted early round games, as well as the third-place match and the final on
short notice after the tournament was moved from China to the United States.
The stadium has also hosted numerous international and professional tournaments, including the CONCACAF
Gold Cup, Champions League, SuperLiga and InterLiga, while also bringing some of the largest clubs in the
world for friendlies.
On the following page is a breakdown of the activity at U.S. Soccer’s National Training Center in both 2010
and 2011.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
Neighboring the Kimball House to the
south is the Coleman-Ames House built
in 1886. Numerous families have
resided in this mansion. Coleman, the
original owner, lived in the home until
1888, when he sold the mansion to
Massachusetts coal merchant Miner T.
Ames. Ames resided in the house for
just two years before he died in 1890.
The Coleman-Ames house is home to
U.S. Soccer’s coaching, refereeing,
accounting
and
technology
departments, as well as the set of
Studio 90.
The Home Depot Center officially opened for U.S. Soccer on June 6, 2003, as the U.S. Under-17 Men’s
National Team arrived to begin training. The first game at The HDC was played in the stadium one day later
on June 7, 2003, as the LA Galaxy topped the Colorado Rapids 2-0 in Major League Soccer action.
It was not until the late 1940s that a
connecting link between the Kimball
and Coleman coach houses was
erected, designed to give the courtyard
a unified appearance.
With its historic appearance, Soccer
House has been Chicago’s home to
Hollywood, serving as a location shoot
for a number of motion pictures,
including extended use for the filming
of Richard Gere’s “Primal Fear.”
COMPETITIONS
The Kimball House, built of Bedford
limestone and topped with a slate roof,
has an exterior consisting of numerous
large and small turrets, gables,
balconies and ornamental iron-railed
galleries. The interior of Kimball House
is as extravagant as its exterior, with
wood abundant throughout. The
ceilings are beamed in oak and
mahogany, and fireplaces made of onyx
warm the parlor.
The complex is a first-class facility that shows the integration of all the U.S. National Team programs,
from U-14 developmental camps straight through to the full men's and women's teams playing in the
main stadium.

U.S. SOCCER TIMELINE
Early 1800s: As was the case in England, many 1898:
American schools and colleges played forms of
football, but under rules that varied from place to
place.
1862:
The Oneida Football Club, made up of
Boston prep school students, was organized by
Gerritt Smith Miller. The game the Oneidas played
was more like rugby than like soccer, but they were
the first American team playing any type of football
to be organized on a continuing basis, rather than
just for the day.
1866: The first game in America using the
association football rules standardized three years
before in London was played on Oct. 11 in
Waukesha, Wis. A team of Carroll College students
beat a team of local residents.
1869:
1876:
Most of the football-playing colleges
abandoned soccer in favor of rugby. However, within
a few years soccer had begun to take hold in
immigrant communities in various American
locations such as Fall River, Mass.; Kearny, N.J.,
and St. Louis.
1904:
A Canadian team won the soccer
competition at the Olympic Games in St. Louis.
1905:
A 17-game North American tour by the
Pilgrims, an English amateur team, helped to revive
soccer in the United States. St. Leo’s won the first
of its 10 consecutive St. Louis Major League titles.
1906: West Hudson of Harrison, N.J., won the first
championship of the revived AFA Cup. A year later,
it added the first championship of the revived
National Association Foot Ball League.
1913: The United States Football Association was
founded at an April 5 meeting in New York. FIFA,
which had been founded in 1904, granted it
provisional membership later in the year and full
membership in 1914.
1914:
The first National Challenge Cup
tournament, the championship of the new USFA,
was won by the Brooklyn Field Club (the
tournament’s name was later changed to the U.S.
Open Cup).
1884: The American Football Association, only the
second national soccer association outside of the
British Isles, but one that was really more regional
than national, was organized in Newark, N.J.
1885: The first American Football Association Cup
was won by ONT of Kearny, N.J., and a team
representing the United States played one from
Canada in Kearny on Nov. 28 in the first
“international” game in America.
1894:
The first attempt to start a pro soccer
league in the United States, the American League
of Professional Football Clubs, lasted for only three
weeks in October. However, a longer-lasting league,
the National Association Foot Ball League, began
the following spring.
FIRST TEAM: The very first U.S. Men’s National Team squad
prepares to take the field in their first match, a 3-2 victory
over Sweden in Stockholm on Aug. 20, 1916.
1916:
The first national team organized by the
USFA, named the All-American Football Club,
played six games in a tour of Sweden and Norway.
Thomas Swords of Fall River captained the side,
and Charles Spalding scored the first goal ever for
the U.S. national team against Sweden.
1919:
Bethlehem Steel, after sweeping the
National Challenge Cup, the AFA Cup and the
National Association Foot Ball League, became the
first American club to make a European tour when
it played 14 games in Sweden and Denmark.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
1883: The first soccer league in America, the
Western Football Association, was organized in St.
Louis.
COMPETITIONS
A week after they played what has been
called the first American football game, teams from
Princeton and Rutgers met on Nov. 13 in Princeton,
N.J., in a game using association football rules, the
first intercollegiate soccer game in America.
A depression resulting from the financial
panic of 1893 caused the suspension of both the
American Football Association and the nation’s
leading league, the National Association Foot Ball
League of New Jersey.

NUMBER ONE: Anson Dorrance led the U.S. Women to the
inaugural Women’s World Cup crown in 1991 in china.
In July, the men made international headlines by
advancing to the semifinals of Copa America. The
U.S. scored its first-ever victory against Argentina,
3-0, and advanced via penalty kicks (against
Mexico) into the semifinals before falling 1-0 to
defending world champion Brazil. Steve Sampson,
who had served as interim coach since April, was
named full-time head coach in August.
The APSL was declared a Division II professional
league. The United States Interregional Soccer
League (USISL) was given Division III status. Plans
for Major League Soccer – a Division I league to
follow the legacy of World Cup ’94 – were presented
by U.S. Soccer President Alan Rothenberg.
1994:
U.S. Soccer served as host national
association for the 1994 FIFA World Cup,
staging the greatest event in FIFA history. More
than 3.5 million fans flocked to stadiums – still
a World Cup record – and soccer fever in the
U.S. was at an all-time high. The U.S. team
advanced beyond the first round for the first
time in 64 years, falling to eventual champion
Brazil 1-0 in a July 4 round of 16 showdown at
Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto, Calif. On June 4,
91,123 fans jammed the Rose Bowl to watch the
U.S. defeat Mexico 1-0 in its final tune-up prior
to the World Cup. Game proceeds netted $1
million in U.S. Soccer contributions to
UNICEF/Children’s Defense Fund.

21st century. U.S. Cup ’93 was used as a dress
rehearsal for World Cup organizers, officials and
volunteers, as well as the U.S. Men. The USA’s 2-0

FIFA – SOCCER’S WORLD GOVERNING BODY
CONCACAF – ON THE RISE
Founded in 1904 to provide unity among national soccer associations, the Federation Internationale de
Football Association (FIFA) boasts 208 members, rivaling that of the United Nations, and is arguably the
most prestigious sports organization in the world.
The Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) was founded in
1961 and serves as the organizing body for 38 national associations, including the United States, and spans
from Canada in the north to Suriname in the south. CONCACAF organizes international competition in a number
of events, including the Champions League, qualifying tournaments for all FIFA competitions and the Gold Cup.
As organizers of the biggest event in the world, the FIFA World Cup, 204 countries entered the two-year
qualifying process to earn one of 31 spots alongside host South Africa at the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
CONCACAF sent three teams to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa as the U.S., Mexico and Honduras won
the three automatic berths allotted to the region, and both the U.S. and Mexico advanced to the Round of 16.
In 2006, the U.S., Mexico, Costa Rica and Trinidad & Tobago represented the confederation in the FIFA World
Cup in Germany. The 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan saw the U.S. advance to the quarterfinals, while
Mexico won their group in earning a second round berth and Costa Rica was eliminated in a difficult group.
In 2005, CONCACAF saw one of its men’s teams win the first-ever outdoor world championship in the
confederation’s history as Mexico swept through the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Peru.
FIFA’s birth was a result of the growing number of international games shortly after the dawn of the 20th
century. Soccer leaders in Europe felt that such expanded competition required a governing body, and
under the leadership of Robert Guerin, a French journalist, the seven founding members gathered in Paris
to shape the future of the sport. Guerin, FIFA’s first president, presided over the organization from 1904
to 1906. Seven other men have also served as FIFA president, including Jules Rimet for 33 years from
1921 to 1954.
In 2000, Guatemala hosted the FIFA Futsal World Cup and in doing so became the first Central American
country to host a FIFA world championship. And in 2001, Trinidad & Tobago hosted the spectacular Under-17
World Cup, becoming the first Caribbean country to host a world championship. A year later, the first-ever FIFA
Women’s Under-19 World Cup was staged in Canada in 2002 and won by the United States. After Trinidad &
Tobago hosted the U-17 Women in 2010, Mexico welcomed the 2011 U-17 World Cup for men and triumphed
as tournament champions.
Currently Switzerland’s Joseph (Sepp) Blatter serves as FIFA president, having been elected originally in
1998. Blatter, the FIFA general secretary from 1991 to 1998, replaced Dr. João Havelange of Brazil in
1998, who was elected to his post in 1974 and served six terms. The current FIFA general secretary is
Jérôme Valcke, who joined FIFA in 2003 as Director of Marketing & TV, before being elected to his current
post in June of 2007.
As the Confederation’s premier event, the Gold Cup is traditionally played every two years by the national teams
within CONCACAF, and rotated to an odd-year, summer schedule in 2003. Mexico, six-time winner of the Gold
Cup, defeated the U.S. in the 1993, 1998, 2009 and 2011 finals and downed Brazil in ’96 and again in 2003.
The U.S. has won four Gold Cups, the inaugural 1991 event, and again in 2002, 2005, 2007. The 2000 Gold
Cup was perhaps the most surprising, with Canada taking home their first major international title as the U.S.
and Mexico failed to qualify for the semifinals. In every other edition of the Gold Cup, the winner earns a berth
to the FIFA Confederations Cup.
As soccer’s ultimate administrative authority, FIFA governs all facets of the game: regulating the rules of
play, overseeing the transfers of players internationally, organizing international competitions such as the
FIFA World Cup, establishing standards for refereeing, coaching and sports medicine, and encouraging
soccer’s development around the world.
Among the official world championships staged by FIFA are the World Cup, the Women’s World Cup, the
Under-20 World Cup, the Under-20 Women’s World Cup, the Under-17 World Cup, the Under-17 Women’s
World Cup, the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup and the Futsal World Cup. Additionally, FIFA oversees the
men’s and women’s Olympic Football Tournament staged under the auspices of the International Olympic
Committee every four years. FIFA has also staged the FIFA Confederations Cup, a competition between
each of its confederations' champions, and the FIFA Club World Cup, which was held at the beginning of
2000 for the first time in Brazil.

The Women’s Gold Cup has also been very successful, with the U.S. winning the first three events in 2000,
2002, 2006. In 2002, it took a golden goal from Mia Hamm for the U.S. to dispatch Canada in the final, 21, and in 2000 the U.S. downed guest-team Brazil 1-0 to claim the championship. In the most recent edition
of the tournament, the U.S. again prevailed in extra time, this time courtesy of a Kristine Lilly penalty kick in
the 120th minute.
CONCACAF competed in the FIFA Club World Cup for the first time in 2000, when Mexico’s Necaxa impressed
with a third place finish in the 2000 tournament in Brazil. The CONACACAF club tournament, which is
contested amongst the 38 nations’ domestic league champions, was won by D.C. United in 1998 and 2001.
In 2008, CONCACAF unveiled the Champions League to replace the Champions Cup and decide the region's
annual club title. Real Salt Lake narrowly missed out on the 2011 title, losing 3-2 (agg.) to Monterrey in the
two-legged final.
In 1994, CONCACAF joined Europe and South America as the only confederations to host three or more World
Cup finals. Mexico welcomed the world twice, in 1970 and 1986, while the United States staged the event for
the first time in 1994.

Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland – to “promote the game of Association Football (as opposed
to rugby or American football), to foster friendly relations among National Associations, Confederations,
and their officials and players, by promoting the organization of football matches at all levels, and to
control every type of association football by taking steps as shall be deemed necessary or advisable.”

The U.S. Adult Soccer Association, which relocated
their headquarters to Toyota Park, Bridgeview, Ill. in
2011, is responsible for developing the sport for
players over the age of 19. Within the USASA, local
clubs are affiliated with leagues which, in turn, are
affiliated with their state associations. A
competitive and recreational oriented organization,
the USASA helps develop adult amateur soccer for
both men and women on a national basis.
Approximately 3 million players between the ages of
five and 19 are registered with US Youth Soccer,
which maintains a network of 55 state associations.
Programs are administered with the help of more than
300,000 coaches and 600,000 volunteers.
Founded in 1964, the AYSO is a national
association affiliated with U.S. Soccer and operates
soccer programs with more than 650,000 children
participating throughout the U.S. AYSO operates
programs so young people can learn to develop a
positive self-image, self-confidence and other
character traits through their interest and
participation in the sport.
As part of that development, the USASA stages the
annual National Cup Finals, which features
champions from each of the four U.S. Soccer
regions (Regions I, II, III and IV) squaring off in six
different competitions. The USASA also organizes
national tournaments for Veterans and Co-Ed teams.

Every year the organization also stages a National
Youth Championship with different national titles up
for grabs in boys and girls soccer for youth players
from Under-14 through Under-19. The Under-19
Boys’ James P. McGuire Cup is the most prestigious of
the competition’s trophies, dating back to 1935. First
competed in 1980, the J. Ross Stewart Cup for
Under-19 Girls is the oldest women’s youth trophy.
In the summer of 2005, US Youth Soccer moved their
national headquarters to the new soccer complex
constructed in Frisco, Texas, where they share office
space with FC Dallas of MLS.

AYSO’s success has been based on the philosophies
of “Everyone Plays” and “Balanced Teams,” ideas
originated more than 40 years ago by founder Hans
F.W. Stierle. AYSO requires every player to play at
least half of every game and that individual teams
are balanced every year to assure fair play. Other
AYSO tenets include open registration, positive
coaching and good sportsmanship.
AYSO is a volunteer-driven organization of more than
260,000 parents and friends who serve as coaches,
referees and team administrators. A full-time staff

The Soccer Association for Youth (SAY) is an affiliate
member of U.S. Soccer and was founded in 1967.
• Clubs are the vehicle through which players are
developed, and US Club Soccer should aid in
club development.
• Clubs and their leadership should be the
primary decision-makers in the structure and
organization of soccer.
• US Club Soccer should provide leadership and
a vehicle for clubs and technical leaders to
work together to elevate the game and player
development environment.
US Club Soccer’s local and national programs have
all been developed with strong input from clubs
around the country and with a minimum of rules
and restrictions.
U.S. HISTORY & INFO
The USASA, in association with the U.S. Soccer
Federation, helps stage the annual Lamar Hunt
U.S. Open Cup, the oldest annual team tournament
in the United States dates back to 1914, when the
Brooklyn Field Club won the first national title by
defeating the Brooklyn Celtics in Pawtucket, R.I.
US Youth Soccer offers both recreational and
competitive programs. The recreational programs offer
great opportunities for players primarily interested in
fun, fitness and friendship. Small-sided games are
encouraged for players under the age of 10. For more
advanced players, US Youth Soccer offers highly
competitive or select leagues including the National
Championship Series, Olympic Development Program
and National League.
With more than 140,000 players, 20,000 coaches

are balanced to discourage “blow outs.” Every child
must play at least half of every game, with an aim
toward equal participation. SAY still allows its areas

The latest of these programs are the National
Premier Leagues (NPL), which are being created
throughout the country to provide high level
competition in given geographic areas, and to
elevate and change the competitive youth
landscape based upon US Club Soccer’s
fundamental principles. These leagues extend
developmental principals espoused by the U.S.
Soccer Development Academy into younger age
groups and additional clubs, providing a platform
for long-term player development.
With the recent addition of US Club Soccer’s
National Adult Leagues platform aimed at
expanding adult soccer at all levels of play, clubs
are able to unite youth and adult programs
seamlessly under one organizational umbrella. This
follows the successful world model of full
integration at all ages and allows for the creation of
a “members for life” culture within each club.
A sampling of US Club Soccer programs include:
Over the past six years, MLS has continued to
expand with Chivas USA and Real Salt Lake joining
in 2005, Toronto FC in 2007, and the San Jose
Earthquakes rejoining the league in 2008. In 2009,
Seattle Sounders FC joined the league with the
Philadelphia Union becoming the 16th MLS team
in 2010. Expansion continued in the Pacific
Northwest as the Portland Timbers and Vancouver
Whitecaps joined the league for the 2011 season.
In 2012, the Montreal Impact will become MLS’s
19th team.
In 2011 the league continued to be divided into two
conferences (Eastern and Western). Eastern
Conference – Chicago Fire, Columbus Crew, D.C.
United, Houston Dynamo, New England Revolution,
New York Red Bulls, Philadelphia Union, Sporting
Kansas City, Toronto FC; Western Conference –
Chivas USA, Colorado Rapids, F.C. Dallas, LA
Galaxy, Portland Timbers, Real Salt Lake, San Jose
Earthquakes, Seattle Sounders FC and Vancouver
Whitecaps.
MLS has a unique ownership and operating
structure, based on a “single-entity” concept.
Unlike other professional sports leagues, which are
a confederation of independent franchise owners,
MLS’ “single-entity” structure allows investors to
own an interest in the league, as well as individual
teams. MLS believes that the structure will better
position the league for longterm success.

USL has become the largest organization of elitelevel soccer leagues in North America by building
on the vision, commitment, and passion of
players, fans and investors. USL continues to be a
driving force in the growth of soccer in the United
States, Canada and Caribbean.

league in 1986, USL has grown to scores of teams
competing in six separate leagues across the
country – USL PRO, MISL, PDL, W-League, Super20 League and the Super Y-League.
USISL, as it was then known, created an amateur
outdoor league in 1989 that divided into
professional and amateur leagues in 1995 after
continued growth. Those leagues would become
the PSL and PDL with the A-League joining USL
in 1997. The W-League was founded in 1995. The
Super Y-League was established in 1999 and has
grown to more than 500 teams and includes an
ODP identification program. USL PRO is the third
level of soccer (a Division III League) in the United
States and Canada, while USL purchased the
MISL prior to the 2011-12 season.

U.S. SOCCER FOUNDATION
THE MAJOR CHARITABLE ARM OF SOCCER
The U.S. Soccer Foundation is a recognized leader in sports-based youth development programs for children in
underserved urban communities. Since its inception in 1994, the Foundation has provided more than $55 million
in funding to create and sustain innovative programs across all 50 states. Proven to deliver positive health and
social outcomes, the Foundation’s affordable initiatives offer safe environments for both boys and girls to thrive.
Headquartered in Washington, D.C. the U.S. Soccer Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
The U.S. Soccer Foundation’s Soccer for Success program is an innovative youth development after-school program
that uses soccer as a tool to combat childhood obesity and promote healthy lifestyles for children in underserved
urban communities. The Foundation partners with community-based organizations across the country to operate
Soccer for Success sites – providing thousands of children, in grades K-8, with free after-school programming.
In 2011, the Corporation for National and Community Service awarded the U.S. Soccer Foundation a $2 million
federal grant from the 2011 Social Innovation Fund to use Soccer for Success as a vehicle to promote healthy
lifestyles and reduce obesity rates among at-risk youth in urban areas. Currently, the Soccer for Success program
serves 8,000 children in eight cities nationwide and will expand to serve 12,000 children within the next year.
In addition to programming, the U.S. Soccer Foundation works to build quality soccer fields that provide
children with safe and accessible places to play. The Foundation engages community partners to identify
vacant or underutilized space and works with them to build fields that make a positive impact in their
communities. Recognizing the lack of space available in many urban areas, the U.S. Soccer Foundation builds
smaller sized fields called Mini-Pitches.
The Foundation is dedicated to assisting those who serve youth through soccer in urban communities. Each
year the Foundation organizes the Urban Soccer Symposium, an event which brings together non-profit
organizations that directly support soccer programs and projects to share funding resources, best practices and
other technical expertise. The Foundation has laid the groundwork for networking and partnership
opportunities among urban soccer programs nationwide.
Members are elected in three categories – Player, Builder and Veteran (player) – and elections and inductions
are carried out annually. The Class of 2012 will be voted on and announced during the first few months of
2012, with the induction coming later in the year.
Voters in the Player category include select members of the media, Hall of Famers, past and present U.S. Men’s
and Women’s National Team coaches, MLS and WPS coaches of four or more years tenure, and a select group
of soccer administrators. The Hall of Fame members vote in the Veteran category, and in the Builder category,
select national soccer administrators join the Hall of Famers in voting.
With the doors to the museum in Oneonta, N.Y., closing in 2009, inductions will now be held at rotating venues
throughout the country based on the U.S. soccer calendar. Soccer House in Chicago now houses the Dewar
Challenge Trophy and the 1991 and 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup trophies. The archive and collection has
been relocated to Hillsborough, N.C., where it is accessible for research.
The Hall of Fame also possesses an archive of more than 80,000 items, which make up one of the largest
collections of soccer artifacts and records in the world. The collection includes such rare pieces as the
world’s oldest soccer ball (made in the USA) and both the 1991 and 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup Trophy.
The collection also includes the North American Soccer League archive, the 1994 FIFA World Cup USA
archive, a rare soccer photography collection from New York depression-era photographer John Albok,
materials from the U.S. national teams in World Cup competition and artifacts from the American Soccer
League of the 1920's and 1950's.
Website: soccerhall.org
As part of the Foundation’s work in Washington, D.C., it has joined with a bipartisan group of Members of
Congress to establish and support the Congressional Soccer Caucus. The mission of the Caucus is to encourage
legislation, activities and events that promote the game and issues affecting the soccer community.

U.S. HISTORY & INFO
Along with helping build quality soccer fields, the U.S. Soccer Foundation has provided over $55 million in
grants and financial support to grow the sport of soccer in the United States. Since the first grants were
awarded in 1995, the Foundation has supported the development of over 1,100 fields and impacted over 4.9
million total youth players across all 50 states. In 2011, the U.S. Soccer Foundation awarded 63 grants
totaling over $2.5 million to non-profit organizations serving youth in 30 states. The 2011 grant awards reflect
the Foundation’s focus on improving the health and well-being of children in underserved communities.
The National Soccer Hall of Fame came to life in 1950 when a group of former professional and amateur
players from the Philadelphia “Old-timers” Association took it upon themselves to recognize the achievements
of soccer in America. Sixty years after the “Old-timers” first got together, nearly 300 members have been
elected to the Hall of Fame for their outstanding contributions to American soccer, both on and off the field
COMPETITIONS
The U.S. Soccer Foundation provides uniforms and soccer equipment to children in underserved communities
around the world through its Passback program. New and gently-used soccer gear is collected by individuals,
organizations, and teams and then redistributed to groups who need it most. Since its inception, Passback has
collected close to 800,000 pieces of equipment and redistributed it to schools, clubs and youth organizations
in 127 countries. To learn more about this program, visit passback.org.

The 2010 FIFA World Cup was a landmark moment in the history of soccer on television in the United States,
with record-breaking viewership across both the ESPN and Univision networks. The notable viewership validated
ESPN’s decision to increase their attention on the world’s game and put impressive amounts of resources towards
the FIFA World Cup.
2018 / 2022 FIFA WORLD CUP TELEVISION RIGHTS
In October of 2011, the amazing growth of the sport was demonstrated when a bidding war over the U.S.
broadcast rights for the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cups played out in Zurich. In the end, a record sum of more
than $1 billion was paid by FOX and Telemundo, an increase of at least 147 percent over the combined $425
million that ESPN and Univisión paid for the rights to the ’10 and ’14 tournaments.
FOX paid a reported $450 to $500 million to beat out ESPN and NBC for the English rights, while Telemundo is
said to have paid $600 million to outbid Univision for the Spanish rights.
