Old news from January 2015
http://equalizersoccer.com/2015/01/3...nwsl-training/
A task force, led by chair and former U.S. international Carin Jennings-Gabarra, has analyzed the state of U.S. Soccer’s women’s youth development over the last four years and made three initial, overarching recommendations:
Assessment & evaluation: technical staffing initiative
Training & development: training centers and scouting
Competition: Expanded youth national teams and international games
How will all of this be achieved? The federation is exploring the potential to create a 60-player national girls’ multi-age residency program in a city yet to be determined. The program would be for players age 14-18 and focus on developing the country’s best players into future national team players. It would be different from the boys’ residency program in Bradenton, Fla., U.S. Soccer president Sunil Gulati said.
This would pair with a girls’ development academy, which would target U-14, U-16 and U-18 league modelsComment

It looks like this would be on top of ECNL. Top players from any league would be identified and attend if selected. Looks like a great idea. It's no Thorns academy though.
Anyone want to bet it will be located in s California?Comment

Can't believe some idiot thinks this includes the Thorns AcademyOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Judging from the concentration of teams/players on the East Coast, Florida is probably a better bet.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
