Huitema among 13 invited to Canada Soccer invites 13 players into Canada Soccer women’s national team EXCELeration camp

Canada Soccer announced on Friday the 13 players invited to an EXCELeration Camp in Burnaby from May 20-28, including Whitecaps FC Girls Elite REX player Jordyn Huitema. The camp is scheduled ahead of Canada's two home matches in Winnipeg on June 8, and in Toronto on June 11.

Canada Soccer’s EXCELeration programme provides opportunities for a small group of targeted players to receive individualized training and development. For some, it is about conducting a thorough assessment of their current abilities and readiness to gain selection for the Costa Rica Series, and for others, it’s about accelerating their tactical and positional knowledge around the women’s national team playing models, while benefiting from additional time in the National Team camp environment.
