      Contracted to Westside by the Thorns as the Timbers know how bad it's going to be and that no one would notice if it was just another really bad team at Westside.

          Rumor has it the timbers decided against the thorns academy and passed it off to Westside to be the westside thorns.

              It's a good concept but I think it's run its course.

                ODP is kinda cute up to U13. Parents can brag about their 12 year old training with the Olympic development team. But coaching stinks and it's really just a money generating activity. Let parents brag up to U13.

                  If your kid can make the region iv cut, then it is all good. Otherwise, it is just extra training.

                    03 of tryouts

                    Anybody have some insight as to why most of the top players in this age group are not on the invite list for ODP State Pool?

                      Because all the top players in the state do ECNL and don't bother with Timbers bootball ODP.

                        That's where you're wrong. A number of the girls that do ecnl are part of RtC this year but for some reason they're not on the invite list for the ODP State Pool whether the girls want to be involved in the ODP State Pool is up to them but the choice is not even going to be given to them as they were not invited to the tryouts which I find to be quite interesting

                          Most Washington and California clubs will have nothing to do with ODP.

                            There are several GPS and CU and FCP ecnl girls on the original RTC rosters and none of them got invited to tryout for state pool did they all quit RTC?

                              That might have something to do with the email that went out a week or two ago.

                                Perhaps that finally answers the question posed by the thread title. Oregon is going to select a team without the girls from the top 3 teams in the state. By the way, those 3 teams don't have Timbers in their name. How many of the starters from a year ago remain in the pool?
