John Herdman has named his roster for two upcoming friendlies in Europe. In continuing a recent trend, the team is quite young, with 14 players younger than 23 and six teenagers. That includes a 15 year old. Only three women on the roster have clear memories of the 1990s. Here is the roster: GK Stephanie Labbé, age 30, from Edmonton, AB/ Washington Spirit (NWSL)GK Sabrina D'Angelo, age 23, from Welland, ON/ North Carolina Courage (NWSL)GK Kailen Sheridan, age 21, from Whitby, ON/ Sky Blue FC (NWSL)FB Lindsay Agnew, age 21, from Kingston, ON/ Washington Spirit (NWSL)FB Allysha C -

Is Canada the team of destiny at the Women's World Cup?
Squizz posted a article in Some Canadian Guys
After a narrow 2-1 defeat to the host Germans—in which captain Christine Sinclair shook off a broken nose to score on a world-class free kick—Canada was mercilessly picked apart by France, who announced itself to the women’s soccer world with a 4-0 victory. The Canadians then slumped out of the tournament with a 1-0 loss to Nigeria, whereupon manager Carolina Morace followed through on a pre-tournament promise to resign upon its conclusion. The turnaround from World Cup doormats to Olympic medalists in the span of just 12 months has been largely attributed to head coach John Herdman and his -
Yes, Big Red will play its "sendoff" match against England at Hamilton's Tim Hortons Field on Friday, May 29. Thirteen days later, the team opens up the World Cup group stage at Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium against China. It's a good date and a good opponent. It's what head coach John Herdman would call a "Tier II" team -- which is the same group Canada falls into, if folks are being honest with themselves. England just beat Canada 1-0 in the Cyprus Cup final (more on that in a moment) and is the sort of opponent Canada needs to (and can realistically be expected to) overcome if we have an

Last Monday Canadian Women’s National team head coach John Herdman announced the 24 player roster for the Cyprus Women’s Cup Tournament that begins on Wednesday. This tournament provides important exhibition preparation ahead of the Women’s World Cup in June. Like in past Cyprus Cups, the team will use this as an opportunity to develop cohesiveness among the group and unify their shared purpose. Herdman understands the importance of continuing the momentum the team has created this year after winning three matches en route to capturing Bao’an Cup in China. “We've been on a roll and hope to

Now, yes, I've said repeatedly in this space -- and will continue to do so -- that one of the most important roles for head coach John Herdman is to figure out the plan for the post-Sinclair era. Canada's success over the past decade has been due, in large part, to Sinclair's at-times-otherworldly talent. That's not to detract from the skills or accomplishments of other members of her national-team generation; but it's indisputable that Canada is a profoundly more dangerous team with an in-form Sinclair than they are without her. The truth is, we haven't seen Sinclair at the height of her pow

Prior to the opening whistle, the members of the Canadian team engaged in a spirited discussion about what day of the week it actually was, since they'd crossed the international date line and their internal circadian clocks hadn't yet adjusted. Melissa Tancredi thought to search for a definitive answer online, but for some strange reason found her Internet search engine wasn't working very well. South Korea took advantage of this internal distraction to launch multiple attempts at goal... the referee quickly put a stop to it since, unlike in pinball, the multi-ball feature is not permitted i

Goalkeeper Erin McLeod, celebrating her 100th senior cap for her country, wore the captain's armband in the match. Prior to the match, her teammates had prepared her a giant dolphin-shaped cake to celebrate. They didn't think to ask whether or not she actually likes dolphins (they're OK, in her opinion), and she didn't think to ask why the icing on the cake read "Happy 6th Birthday Timmy"; instead, they all laughed and enjoyed the well-meaning gesture. McLeod, for her part, celebrated the occasion -- and also marked a throwback Monday, this is totally a thing now, maybe -- by meticulously gel

Based on the performances of 2013, friendlies and NWSL games included, who will you pick for the upcoming games against U.S. on June 2nd? Mcleod, D-Scott, Sess, D-Math, Schmidt, Sinclair and Buchanan would be a lock. Probably Gayle, Kyle and Zurrer as well. Not sure about the rest.

What's up, Some of you might know me from my @fouge account. I'm a coach from Dartmouth, NS. I used to coach at Dartmouth United, and with the Harbour East RTC. For a minute I was an assistant with the St. Mary's University women's program. Currently, I live in Ottawa and am helping at the Fury. I used to write a bit about the women's side of things, and then for short time about the men's nat teams at goal.com. I had hoped to get to my first national team game next week, but, alas... its not going to happen. I like Argentina. Shoot me.
