USA FOOTBALL SELECTS 45-PLAYER ROSTER TO REPRESENT UNITED STATES AT IFAF UNDER-19 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

U.S. team to compete July 7-16 in Kuwait as part of eight-nation field to determine the Under-19 world champion

Forty-five (45) U.S. high school and players have been selected to play on the 2014 U.S. Under-19 National Team, assembled by USA Football.

The team will compete in the 2014 International Federation of American Football Under-19 World Championship, an eight- nation tournament July 7-16 in Kuwait City, Kuwait. IFAF is composed of 64 nations spanning six continents that possess a national federation dedicated solely to American football.

The U.S. Under-19 National Team includes athletes representing 20 states and will compete in a field against national teams from Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Kuwait and Mexico. The United States won the inaugural IFAF Under-19 World Championship in 2009 in Canton, Ohio. Canada claimed the 2012 gold medal in Austin, Texas.

The U.S. team is led by AARON BRADY, head coach at Malvern (Pa.) Preparatory School. Brady spent the last four seasons as the head coach at Gonzaga Prep in Washington, D.C., going 29-16. A former All-Big East and safety at Rutgers University, Brady also has coached at Duke University and Georgetown University as well as at high schools in Florida, Maryland and New Jersey. He was the U.S. Under-19 National Team head coach in 2013, leading Team USA to a 42-10 win in the International Bowl. He also served as a U.S. Under-15 and Under-18 National Team head coach and has traveled to Sweden to teach the sport in conjunction with that country’s football federation.

The International Olympic Committee granted IFAF provisional IOC recognition during its December meeting in Lausanne, Switzerland. A vote on football could take place as early as 2017. If approved, football would join the Summer Olympics lineup in 2024 at a host city yet to be determined. USA Football is the United States’ delegate to IFAF.

U.S. players and coaches will take part in a training camp June 25 to July 1 at Shenandoah University in Winchester, Va. The team departs for Kuwait on July 2. The United States’ pool play schedule is:

 Monday, July 7 – 1 p.m. (ET) vs. Mexico  Thursday, July 10 – 4 p.m. (ET) vs. Germany  Sunday, July 13 – 4 p.m. (ET) vs. Japan

Games begin at 8 and 11 p.m. local time.

The gold medal game is 4 p.m. (ET) Wednesday, July 16, between pool winners.

A national team exemption granted by the NCAA allows current college players to take part and for high school seniors to play for USA Football and not have their participation count among their two permitted all-star game appearances. The IFAF Under-19 World Championship is recognized as a national team competition.

USA Football is the sport’s national governing body in the United States.
