Canada will play at least two games in the tournament: they play M&eacute;xico on 22 April in Birmingham, AL and Argentina on 24 April in Montgomery, AL.<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200bCanada will send a mixed team of national-team veterans and youth-team prospects to this tournament. Half of the roster is made up of U-20 players, including 2006 Canadian Youth Player of the Year Jodi-Ann Robinson. Canada is currently preparing for the XV Pan American Games Rio 2007 in July and the FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup China 2007 in September. The Olympic qualification tournament takes place in March 2008. Along with the two games in Alabama this month, Canada&rsquo;s full women&rsquo;s national team plays international friendly matches against China on 3 May and 6 May (Hangzou) and against the United States on 12 May (Frisco, TX).<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200bCanadian women&rsquo;s teams (youth and full national) have faced M&eacute;xico 20 times since 1994. Canada&rsquo;s overall women&rsquo;s record against M&eacute;xico is 16 wins, two draws and two losses. Canadian women have faced Argentina, meanwhile, only once: a 3:0 win by the senior team at the FIFA Women&rsquo;s World Cup USA 2003.<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200b<br>\u200bCanada&rsquo;s 22 April match with M&eacute;xico kicks off at 14.30 at Legion Field in Birmingham.
