On Monday, USA Ultimate announced the 200 players invited to tryout for the Under-20 USA National Teams that will compete at the 2022 World Juniors Ultimate Championships in Cap Cana, Dominican Republic, next August. 100 women’s and 100 men’s players have received invites. This will be the first WJUC since 2018 after the 2020 edition was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

As has been the case in the past, the rosters will be selected after a split tryout process between the East and West Coasts. The East tryout will be in Florida; the West in southern California.

Here are the 200 players invited to try out for the team.
