Canada Soccer has named its women's under-17 squad for next month's U-17 Costa Calida MIMA Cup in Spain.
The tournament serves as a warmup for CONCACAF U-17 qualifying play in March and April, which will determine the region's four representatives at the FIFA U-17 Women鈥檚 World Cup, running Oct. 17 to Nov. 8 in Morocco.
The young Canadians will face England on Feb. 11 before taking on Scotland on Feb. 13 and Sweden on Feb. 15 with all three games at the Pinatar Arena in San Pedro del Pinatar.
"I鈥檓 really looking forward to getting this group of players together from across the country as we begin the next cycle of the U-17 women鈥檚 national team programming," interim women's under-17 coach Gary Moody said in a statement. "This camp will serve as our first opportunity to access the player pool as we prepare for CONCACAF U1-7 World Cup qualifiers in April."
Moody's staff for the camp includes assistant coach Tina Cook, analyst and technical assistant Jed Davies and goalkeeper/set-piece coach Christopher Cinelli-Faia.
Moody鈥檚 24-player squad includes six players from CF Montreal, two from Alberta, six from the National Development Centre (NDC) British Columbia, and 10 players from the NDC Ontario.
