How well do you perform under pressure? How well do you – as an individual – stand out when you’re not lining up next to your team? These scrimmages will give you the chance to show how you can elevate those around you when the Gold is on the line.
This is the moment to set your PR – personal record – when it comes to measurement. You’ll be measured and get your results from 3 High Performance Combine Tests. Bring your elite performance with your elite skills to showcase why you deserve a spot in the program.

Athletes who want to compete at a USA Football Talent ID Camp must become USA Football Athlete Members. Athlete Membership includes a Welcome Gift, Digital Resources, National Team eligibility, Sanctioned Tournament eligibility, Accident Insurance and more!
Talent ID Camps are easy ways to join the U.S. National Team Selection process. These camps count as U.S. National Team Qualifying Events, which make USA Football Members eligible for the next cycle of U.S. National Team participation.
You’ll also be eligible for our brand-new National Team Development Program, where athletes are selected based on age and talent to compete on USA Football Select Teams! These teams will receive National Team caliber preparation and development both on-and-off the field while competing with and against some of the best athletes in the country in the USA Football Select Bowl in Los Angeles.
Athletes interested in the U.S. National Team can register on GMTM to learn more and get updates on the U.S. National Team.

Every year, thousands of athletes are evaluated for the U.S. Flag National Team or a Junior National Team. To support the next generation of athletes on the cusp of greatness and give more athletes a chance to #RepTheFlag, USA Football is launching the National Team Development Program in 2024!
USA Football is building this developmental pipeline to feed future National Teams competing in international competitions, including the Olympics. Through the National Team Development Program, top flag football players from around the country are identified, trained and selected to be developed and exposed to the next level of competition on USA Football’s Select Teams.
With the help of National Team personnel and resources, Select Team athletes will hone their skills and raise their game as they train and compete in USA Football’s Select Bowl in Los Angeles. Top performances will further cement why they should earn an invite to the 2025 U.S. National Team Trials.
Athletes aged 11-19, essentially Middle & High School, are invited to participate.
The camp will feature several areas to help you improve, and individuals should expect to spend about four hours at a Talent ID Camp. Typically, boys will participate in one half of the day, while girls will participate in the other half. Each event's times and schedule may vary.
All registrations must be completed by the athlete’s parent or legal guardian.
Yes, you must be an Athlete Member to participate in USA Football Talent ID Camps. Athlete Membership includes a Welcome Gift, Digital Resources, National Team eligibility, Sanctioned Tournament eligibility, Accident Insurance and more! Your Membership will also auto-renew each January.
Talent ID Camp registration is $99.99. USA Football Athlete Membership is also required for registration/participation.
All registrations must be completed by the athlete’s parent or legal guardian. Talent ID Camp and Qualifier Tournament Registration are separate.
We are always looking for additional opportunities to add Talent ID Camps. You can sign up with GMTM or create a USA Football athlete account to stay up-to-date!

Select Teams
USA Football plans to create four Select Teams for the following areas: 12U Boys, 12U Girls, 14U Boys, 14U Girls, 16U Boys, 16U Girls, and 20U Girls. Each team will feature 10-12 athletes and will train and compete in July 2024 in Los Angeles at the USA Football Select Bowl. That means over 200 players will be eligible.
National Teams
In 2024, USA Football invited 60 men and 60 women to tryout for its Adult National Teams. In addition, invited 36 boys and 36 girls for each of its Junior National Teams. Invites were sent December 2023. As a reminder, participants in 2024 Talent ID Camps will be eligible for 2025 National Team Tryouts, which may feature different quantities.
12 or younger as of December 31, 2024. Example for a 12U Select Team: 12 or younger as of December 31, 2024.
While National Team coaches or athletes may participate in this space, the only camps that count as U.S. National Team Qualifying Events or that make you eligible for a Select Team are Talent ID Camps operated by USA Football.
Each Talent ID Camp will be hosted at a different venue. As location details are finalized or updated, information about the venues will be provided to the registrants.*
