While the full roster has yet to be confirmed, it is expected that the list will comprise mostly of North American-based players who are out of season as well as a few European-based players who are on a break.
Many of the players invited into this camp are on Winter break or are presently between their playing season, says Hart. We view this camp as an ideal opportunity for us to have these players in a training camp environment for an extended period – before they return to their clubs”
A full roster for the January camp is expected to be released later this week.
In FIFA’s 2006 year-end world rankings, Canada was the eighth-ranked country in the CONCACAF conference.
