Where are they Now

Sarnia's Devon Beach is heading to Saskatchewan to play at the National U16 All Star Championships from July 18 - 23.

Last weekend Devon was in Oakville where her team competed (and won) at the U16 Ontario Cup first round.  Immediately following the final game of the weekend Devon then traveled to St. Catharines for the U16 Provincial training camp where she was selected to be a member of  the Team Ontario U16 squad leaving for Saskatoon this Sunday to play at the National U16 All Star Championships.

This is the second time that Devon has been a part of a Provincial Team.  Last year she traveled to Alberta as a member of the Championship U15 Squad where they brought home gold at the Rocky Mountain Cup.

The selection process for Canada's National Teams relies heavily on the Provincial Player Development Programs.  Throughout the year Devon has been attending the National Training Camp - Ontario (NTC-O) as well as the Provincial training camp.

Many National players are first identified representing their Provinces at the annual U14 and U16 National All-Star Championships.  It is at the All-Star Championships that the Canadian National Coaches scout for players.

The next step if selected Devon could be asked to attended the National Training Camp (NTC) being held in Toronto in August.

Devon is the daughter of Susan and Nigel Beach and sister of Corbin Beach. 
Devon is a graduate of Errol Road Elementary School and will be heading into grade 11 at Northern Collegiate in the Fall.
Devon's soccer career started in the Sarnia Girls Soccer Club.  Devon joined the London City Club (formally known as North London) at U12.  Currently she is playing for the London City U16 Supernova OYSL team.

Good Luck Devon!
