(2009) - Fischer was picked to be one of the 20 players the U-14 NDP team is taking to Guadalajara, Mexico to compete January 17-24, 2010. The players traveling to Disney World from Nov. 25-30 were all born in 1996, and represent the first group of ‘96s to enter the U.S. youth national team system. The players will be split into two teams, Navy and Red, to compete in three games at the Disney event. On Monday, Nov. 30, the two national teams will face each other before departing in the afternoon. 

In August of 1997, U.S. Soccer started the U.S. Under-14 National Development Program, knowing that to continue to compete with the elite countries on the international level, the U.S. would have to build a base of soccer players from the youth level up. The Under-14 program introduces young players to a level of soccer they would not otherwise see at such a young age and allows the country’s top youths the chance to experience soccer at its highest level and in an international setting.
