Academy keeper Cody Cropper has been named in the US U20 squad for a training camp in Fort Lauderdale, Florida early in the new year.

The camp, which runs from January 2nd until the 13th, is part of the US squad's preparations for the 2011 FIFA U20 World Cup in Colombia in July and August.

Cropper, who joined Town’s academy as a second-year scholar in the summer, was pulled out of an U20 tournament in November because it clashed with Town’s Youth Cup defeat to Peterborough.

shoopdelang added 23:11 - Dec 23 Fair play to him he seems to be doing well. But he is a very, very average keeper in all honesty, no better than any other semi pro local lad.
