train w/ Tracy or not?
So you recommend that my son trains with Tracy to get a shot at the academy, right? I found something about Rose City Prep. Is that what you're talking about?
But he also directs us to certain clubs, which is bad? I'm confused. Is that not good, if he wants my son to play a certain style of soccer, which would help getting into the academy? Or does my son just need to spend a lot of time (and a lot of my money) with Tracy?

ODP has become a below average experience. There are so many better things you can do with your time and money that will make you a better player.

If you are really good, could go to interregionals during thanksgiving where region i-iv play against each other. sometimes they throw in YNT and see what happens. if you really awesome, could go to odp national training camp in phoenix. good resume builder still.
old system don't die right away, folks. there are still value in them. good experience.
really helped my dd and i am grateful for odp.

ODP would be better if they could convince coaches to participate. Now they just take who they can get.

ODP struggles to get coaches. You have to give up your weekends. Thanksgiving and Spring break they have required events. And pay isn't good.
That's probably why it's not very good.
