GRR: USA U20s
GLENDALE, Colo.– Head Coach Johannes Neethling Gericke leads the USA Men’s U20s into their 2024 campaign next month, as the squad of 32 is named for the annual World Rugby U20s Trophy North American qualifier series against Canada.
Through the holiday break last week, USA Men’s High Performance Pathways hosted the U20 Winter Camps in Charlotte, NC for a multi-day assembly under national team coaching.
The USA Women’s U20s program will come together at the end of the year for a winter camp as the USA High Performance Pathways prepares for its 2024 tournaments and continues player development.
The USA Women's U23 team were beaten quite convincingly in their second game with Canada's U23s and that result is a bit of a wakeup call.
While GRR only a week ago touted this two-game series as a coming-out party for a talented group of young USA players, it turned out more to be a celebration for Canada. The USA, it seems, has work to do.
The USA men’s U20s have taken 7th in the World Rugby U20 Trophy, beating Hong Kong 47-22.
