    Does it really take 6-8 training sessions to determine the teams?
    Most will be carried over from last year. They likely have had a pretty good for a while now, need to justify charging for pool training though.

      Is the B team basically the Florida camp or will some age groups have B teams for Alabama camp?

            Knowing several kids that are well regarded ODP players, having seen them play, this assessment is not far off.

              Hmmm. Several Florida da teams absolutely suck. A mid level state cup team would compete with these teams.

                maybe you are right, that's not what I am posting. the odp kids i have seen are above average athletically, below average technical and way below average soccer iq. maybe i just saw some mediocre kids, who knows?

                    ODP is more of an enrichment program for players who are not in DA. DA does not allow its players to participate in ODP. ODP is not a four day a week training program. ODP does need to find a way to change with the times. The ODP teams should train more often, perhaps a north and south Florida regional ODP teams. The ODP teams should enter events such as the Disney Showcase and play in the top tiers against the best competition. ODP practices and games should be announced and open for college recruiting.

                      I think you miss the point of ODP... but you do repeat ODP a lot.

                          Generate revenue for FYSA. Same objective as every youth club. Duh!

                            Clearly. That’s just dumb. Seems like that should be the purpose of the Florida camp.

                                Look, just cause you don’t like it, or think you’re too good for it, doesn’t mean it’s worthless. We have great friends in the program.
