What Exactly is "K Dorm"?

I've gotten numerous emails asking me "What exactly is K Dorm?"

K Dorm was the U17 MNT Residency apartments on IMG Academy's campus, where the guys lived during their time in residency.
IMG Academy converted time-share apartments (2BR/2B) into dormitory style quarters for the US Soccer U17 Residency participants. In each apartment there were usually 6 players - 4 in the master bedroom and 2 in the smaller bedroom. Each player had their own bunk bed, drawer and personal locker located in the living room area.



All of the US Soccer U17 Residency participants lived in the 2-story K building affectionately called "K Dorm" and were its sole occupants. The unit also had it's own training/equipment room (below) located on the ground floor. K Dorm is located around back near the clay tennis courts.

This year the US Soccer U17 Residency participants have moved to "E Dorm" which is closer to the cafeteria.

Now you know!

Update on E Dorm. No kitchen whatsoever in E, just a refrigerator, no counters, no sink. Now the boys ride in luxury, new Honda Odysseys. E Dorm overlooks Center Court at IMG. Look out Sharapova!
