Team USA Players
Earned spots are invitations to represent the U.S. National FootGolf team and players participation is voluntary.
Players are expected to cover their own costs associated with participation in Team USA. If any cost gets covered by the American FootGolf Federation it will be based on funds raised for Team USA through sponsorship or donation.
Players who are unable to join Team USA for any reason, will be replaced by the Team USA Player Selection Committee (The Captains).
Players' invitation could be withdrawn at any time by the AFGF Board for breach of the AFGL Tour Player Code of Conduct or any other reason.
Player Selection Committee
Team USA
The American FootGolf Federation formally announces the formation of the
Player Selection Committee (The Captains).
The American FootGolf Federation (AFGF) formally announced the formation of the Player Selection Committee (The Captains). The creation of this committee is to help establish a competitive and fair process for selection of the U.S. National FootGolf Team (Team USA) spots for all events (ex, FIFG FootGolf World Cup, Jansen Cup, FIFG World Champions Cup, etc.).
Players who qualify to represent Team USA will receive priority for selection, but The Captains finalize the selection by:
-
Certifying minimum eligibility criteria are met such as Nationality as well as review of Evaluative Events (ex, Tournaments)
-
Evaluation of Performance (ex, technical, psychological) and other subjective considerations (ex, teamwork, integrity, communication)
In addition, not all selected Team USA players are able to attend all international events and part of the role of The Captains is to also select players for vacant or extra spots based on criteria above.
The Captains for 2022-2023 are
• Captain Nick Wallace from California.
• Vice Captain Sean McNamara from New Jersey.
• Manager Alex Rasmussen from Tennessee.
The AFGF believes that this is a step forward in the evolution of US FootGolf and in helping select the very best Team USA.
