The U.S. women’s national team’s January training camp roster has been revealed.

Alyssa Thompson, Sam Coffey, and Crystal Dunn headlined Emma Hayes’ 26-player roster for January 14-21’s training camp in Carson, California. The camp will serve as an early preparation window for the USWNT ahead of February’s SheBelieves Cup.

The camp will also be held concurrently with a 24-player Futures Camp, featuring up-and-coming USWNT prospects. The Futures Camp roster will be released on Wednesday.

Six uncapped players will be attending their first senior team training camp while many of the veteran faces will continue with their current club schedules. Catarina Macario, Lindsey Horan, and Emily Fox are among several players that are currently in domestic action abroad.

"We want to continue to foster an environment and culture on the National Team that is player-centric and female athlete-centric and helps the players maximize their abilities," said Hayes. "Having positive, growth experiences with the USWNT will help them in their careers and help us build a deeper player pool. I'm really looking forward to getting on the field with these players and the players in the Futures Camp to get in a solid week of training with both groups without having to make adjustments for the impact that a match would have on our loading and training plan. I can't wait."

The USWNT will face Colombia on Feb. 20, Australia on Feb. 23, and Japan on Feb. 26 in the SheBelieves Cup.
