The Samoa national under-20 association football team (Samoan: Sāmoa soka au) represents Samoa in under-20 competitions and is controlled by the Football Federation Samoa, the governing body for football in Samoa. Samoa's U20 home ground is Toleafoa J.S Blatter Soccer Stadium in Apia.[1] It was known as the Western Samoa national under-20 football team until 1997, following the renaming of the country. Samoa is a part of the FIFA Goal project.[2] The 2022 squad consisted of 18 non-Samoan based players out of a squad of 26, this was made possible through extensive worldwide scouting, no other country in the OFC region has seen this amount of off shore players in an U20 squad.
