US Soccer and U-17 head coach John Hackworth recently released the 32-man list of players invited to US Soccer's spring residency program in Bradenton, Florida. Among those players was one New York Red Bulls Academy player, defender Christopher Gloster.

Gloster is from Montclair, New Jersey, and most recently featured for New York's U-13/14 team. Here he played 25 games, starting every one of them, and scored 3 goals. Gloster is now part New York's Under-16 team.

The U-17 residency program has helped launched the careers of many professional players, and while the program is slowly being faded out it remains a vital part of US Soccer's development pathway. Recently, Red Bulls Academy players Matt Olosunde and Tyler Adams, prior to signing with New York Red Bulls II, have featured in the residency program.
