(1) NEXUS AGE GROUPS are aligned to International Field Hockey AGE GROUPS, which are by birth year. CLUB AGE GROUPS are aligned to the academic calendar and go from August 1 to July 31
(2) The 2025 NEXUS cycle is selecting players for International competition in 2026. Therefore, all players are "aged up" one year.
(3) Players that are enrolled in college (including 'grey shirt' players) must enroll in Senior NEXUS. The program described her is Junior NEXUS. Junior NEXUS is for middle school and high school players. REGIONAL SELECTION CAMP

The program brings field hockey players together with experienced coaches trained in The USA Way. This unique coaching platform provides a unified framework for how we think about the game of field hockey across the country. From player development and technical skills,to how players can own their personal development,this program aims to help dedicated athletes be the best they can be. USA Field Hockey is pleased to be building and strengthening our partnership with Osaka America, and appreciates Osaka’s support of both our U.S. Men’s and Women’s National Teams and our Nexus, Olympic Development Pathway Program. Our national and junior national team athletes and coaches have been impressed with style and quality of Osaka’s products and high-performance gear and apparel, and we know our Nexus players and coaches will be as well. Osaka is now thrilled to represent both spectrums of elite hockey in the United States, with Nexus and the national teams. |
