Over 1,000 athletes competed in USA Field Hockey’s 2024 Junior and Senior Nexus Championship, and now a handful of them have been selected to attend the U-16, U-18, and U-21 Junior Women’s National Team Selection Camp, USA Field Hockey announced Tuesday.
“The Summer of 2024 has been an exciting time for USA Field Hockey and Nexus Championship, presented by Osaka Hockey, was a huge part of that excitement” USA Field Hockey Director of Nexus Liz Sanders said in a release. “Over 1,000 athletes across all age groups competed in this premier pathway event. The level of play, competitiveness and commitment to excellence by all the players sets the stage for continued success by the Junior U.S. Women’s National Teams.”
The United States is hosting the 2028 Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles, California. As the host nation, both USA men’s and women’s teams will take part in the games.
“We are very excited to get started on the next junior high performance cycle in the buildup to LA28, which will be here sooner than we think,” USA Field Hockey Director of Junior High Performance Grant Fulton said in a release. “The current athlete selection announcement is another step along the pathway, like passing the baton from Nexus to JHP and finally down the road to LA28.”
