The announcement comes ahead of this season’s North v Midland regional trials for the ESFA’s U15 Girls’ England squad, which are due to be held at Stafford Town FC on Sunday 10 November.
The best players from the North and Midlands squads will be selected during the trial on 10 November which will create this season’s ‘Northern’ squad. The same process will take place in the South of England where the best players from the South East and South West will play against each other at Thatcham Town FC, also on the 10 November, to create this season’s ‘Southern’ squad.
These two regional teams will then play each other on 15 December 2019, when the official squad will be selected for International Schools’ Football duty.
Good luck, girls!
