The U-16 U.S. players join their new teammates at Bjerringbro FH for a team photo.

According to Bjerringbro FH's website, the first few Americans have arrived to begin training and competition with the team for the fall semester.

It was a long ride for the players who arrived in Bjerringbro, Denmark Monday at 5:30PM all the way from Bremen, Germany.
 
The U.S. players were given the chance to observe both the men's and women's teams practice and were introduced to their host families afterward who allowed them to get some well-earned rest.
 
Natascha King will arrive Thursday and she is expectedly to be immediately thrown into the conversation of starting goalkeeper for Bjerringbro's first team.
