Three young Barça Residency Academy talents have once again earned call-ups to the U.S. Soccer U-15 Boys National Team. On this occasion, they will be participating in an upcoming domestic training camp in Chula Vista, California.
Easton Odom, Ethan O’Neil, and Diego Ros have been named to head coach Ross Brady’s 24-player roster for the camp, which will run from April 12th to 20th. Barca Residency Academy, alongside Columbus Crew, again leads all programs among the 14 clubs represented on the roster, with 3 players selected.
During the camp, the USA will play two friendlies against Mexico, once on Thursday, April 16th, and again on Sunday, April 19th. Both matches will be played in the U.S. Soccer National Training Center located at the Elite Athlete Training Center in Chula Vista, California.
The camp is part of the Federation’s continued focus on the U.S. Way philosophy, which emphasizes expanded programming for Youth National Teams to create more opportunities for young players to advance along the pathway to the senior National Team, with the goal of representing their country at a world championship.
This young trio of 2011-born Barca Residency Academy players are enjoying a busy season of training experiences, travel, and opportunity. They have traveled to an international USYNT Training Camp in Cyprus earlier this semester and attended a 10-day Barca Academy Training Camp in Barcelona, Spain, in January. They have been heavily involved in recent U.S. Soccer Youth National Team programming throughout the last calendar year, including January 2026 and November 2025 Talent ID Centers.
Individually, Ethan O’Neil earned a call-up to the U.S. U-15 Youth National Team training camp in October, while Easton Odom was selected for the September U-15 USYNT camp, further underscoring the depth of elite talent emerging from Barca Residency Academy. This trio of players continues to prove themselves for both club and country, continuing their high level of play throughout the season.
