LA Galaxy News Release
LOS ANGELES - LA Galaxy Academy Products Jose Magaña Jr. and Ryan Hartley have been named to the U19 and U18 Men's National Team training camp, respectively, to take place January 10-16 at Arizona Athletic Grounds in Mesa, Arizona. This is the first camp callup for each player this year.
The camp is held outside of a FIFA international window and brings together 16 players each from the 2006, 2007 and 2008 birth year groups, allowing the Men's Youth National Team technical staff to give broader evaluation to each player pool, while also providing integrated positional training between each age group.
The combined camp is part of the Federation's continued focus on the U.S. Way philosophy, which emphasizes increased programming for Youth National Teams to create more opportunities for young players to advance through the pathway to the senior National Team with the goal of representing their country at a world championship.
