Union Academy trio invited to United States U16 camp in Florida

Three teammates on the Philadelphia Union U15 team are on the roster for a United States U16 Boys National Team training camp in Bradenton, Florida that opens today and runs through June 10.

A joint camp with the U17 team, the three Union players are among 30 who are part of the U16 group. The Union doesn’t have any representatives in the U17 group.

While Bohui and Miscic have received regular call-ups with the U16 group, Aaronson received his first camp invite to the U16 BNT.

Bohui and Miscic were both part of the team that took third place in the Torneo delle Nazioni in Gradisca d’Isonzo, Italy that ended in early May.
