FIFA Under-20s Women's World Cup
Group A
England, Chile, New Zealand, Nigeria
19 November - 7 December 2008
Chile
Mo Marley has named her squad for next month's FIFA U20s Women's World Cup in Chile, where England will be up against the tournament hosts in the opening game on 19 November.
Marley has a number of experienced players to call upon, the majority of whom formed part of the successful European Championship in 2007 that saw England reach their first final before narrowly missing out to Germany in extra-time.
It was their performance in Iceland that saw England's U19s book their place at the World Cup, and now having waited over a year to perform on the world stage Marley's players have little more than a few weeks until the first game.
Steph Houghton, who was originally named in the senior World Cup squad before suffering injury, is in the squad along with Sophie Bradley, Jessica Clarke and Natasha Dowie - all of whom have played in FA Women's Cup Finals in recent years for Leeds United and Charlton respectively.
Dani Buet was also part of the senior squad for the final two games in qualification for Euro 2009, taking her place on the bench as England defeated Czech Republic 5-1 in Prague.
