Six U.S. national teams to compete against Canada on Feb. 7-8 in Arlington, Texas
More than 300 of the top U.S. high school and junior high school football players from across the nation will head to Arlington, Texas, this weekend to start preparing for the 2014 International Bowl.
The U.S. National Teams – selected by USA Football – will host teams assembled by Football Canada in the annual international competition.
The players may not be household names yet, but neither was Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston or Georgia running back Todd Gurley when they took part in the 2012 game.
Games are Friday, Feb. 7, and Saturday, Feb. 8, at the University of Texas-Arlington’s Maverick Stadium. Schedule information, rosters and ticket information is available at www.internationalbowl.com. Other highlights to the week include a National Signing Day breakfast and Jamboree on Wednesday, Feb. 5, at AT&T Stadium and the NFL FLAG powered by USA Football National Championships on Saturday, Feb. 8, at AT&T Stadium.
The Under-19 competition kicks off two days after National Signing Day, when Team USA and Team Canada players will sign national letters of intent during a morning breakfast event. Last year, 44 eventual college football players signed their letters of intent during International Bowl week alongside family, friends and media.
The NCAA recognizes USA Football’s International Bowl as a national team competition. Playing for the United States in the International Bowl is exempt from high school seniors’ two all-star game appearances.
USA Football and Football Canada are among the 64 national federations who are members of the International Federation of American Football (IFAF). IFAF’s member nations span six continental regions: Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania and South America.
Here are the rosters and coaching staffs.
