ODP/RTC a complete waste of time & money?

Odp isn’t bad. Good for B and C team players that want extra touches on the ball.

So, did you really revive a thread that had received no comment for eight months just to throw shade on 11 and 12 year kids who just made their ODP squads by calling them B and C team players?

Weak.

Hopefully kids have fun doing it irregardless of their skill level. B team players can get better.

Nobody who is anybody goes out for odp anymore at the older age groups. Setting up for failure by not having single age groups for 2003 & 2002 on the girls side. As usual, the boys get single age groups for odp . Wonder who the Timbers care about more? Why would girls go out for a program that even the Timbers who run the program don’t care about?

Nobody cares if it’s good or not. Just about playing and kicking ball around a little. Chill out.

It’s great for “B” team level players or player at outlying clubs that don’t train enough

It was good enough for several current TA players so you are correct- “b” team level players..

Agree with what you say. I have two daughters that did both ODP and RTC thru junior high. It was a great experience and for sure helped them grow as players. Don't think they would be where they are as players today without ODP RTC and the input from diverse groups of coaches.

At the end of the day I concur with you, let them play stay out of the way and Chill...

So what if they are B team players. Is that any of your business?

Thorns Academy is getting all the b team players committed to good colleges so you have to give them credit for that.

Title IX gives girls scholarships.

Regardless if they play just HS, Club or DA.

I think it’s great that those girls are getting opportunities. No negativity here.

Their playing ability would never have them travel, but title 9 opportunities create the illusion that it's now Necessary, simply a wonderfully twisted business scheme.
