2008 DISTRICT ODP INFORMATION - READ THIS!!

Do not mail an application after TBD. Instead, plan to register on the field on the first day of tryouts. (Late fee required) go to http://www.cysadistrict2.org/odp.htm or click here for the sign-up registration form. Contact ODP about late sign-ups and deadlines for the registration form.

Players—District II Olympic Development Program (ODP) tryouts will be held at the Morgan Hill soccer complex on the weekend of Sat., May 10, 2008 and Sat & Sun. May 17-18, 2008. District II will form boys and girls teams in four age groups this year: Any registered CYSA player born in these years and not chosen to a State ODP pool in March is eligible to register for District II ODP tryouts.

Players born will be able to attend one of a number of statewide tryouts held to select a list of invitees to State ODP Tryouts in March 2008. Dates and times for these U17 tryouts (typically held in the summer and early fall) will be on the CYSA-North web site in the coming months.

The ODP selection process starts at the District level. District ODP pools may be formed in each of the nine districts from players within your own district. Players wishing to participate in their District ODP must do so within the district that they are registered. Players may not try out in districts other than in which they are registered. Open tryouts for U13, U14, U15, U16 (Birth years- 92,93,94, and 95) boys and girls are conducted each spring (April-June). Each district administers their own tryouts. January-December birth years will prevail for ODP only. League and club teams will remain on the August 1st to July 31st format.

ABOUT ODP:
The Olympic Development Program is a national process for identifying and developing the best youth soccer players. The process promotes players to the U.S. National Teams, which represent the United States in international competition, such as the Youth World Cup and the Olympics. The main ODP objective is to identify, evaluate and train highly talented male and female youth soccer players.

As part of this national effort, the CYSA ODP is dedicated to developing the highest level of youth soccer. This objective must be achieved in an atmosphere of integrity, fairness and impartiality. The player's physical and cognitive skills and attitude must be the only criteria for the program. The procedure to achieve this objective must be approved by the CYSA Board of Directors and must not conflict with any US Youth Soccer or United States Soccer Federation (USSF) policies. The secondary objectives are to: bullet Evaluate and select players in each ODP age group for a State pool of players from which State Team players are selected. bullet Advance the soccer skills of players in each ODP age group. bullet Provide competitions for State Teams in each ODP age group.

While individual leagues or districts may have additional objectives for their local programs, those objectives must not adversely affect the success of the ODP. ODP participation does not mean that players do not participate on their club team. ODP participation, whether at the District, State, Regional or National level, is concurrent with club team participation. The advantages outweigh any conflicts this might pose

Evaluators—Additional qualified coaches are needed to help the head coaches evaluate players on tryout weekends. If you are interested, please e-mail Jack Salvemini.

Disclaimer Note - STM is only the site host. Please refer all questions regarding selections, games, practices, etc to the coach of the team first, then DII ODP Coordinator: District 2 Jack Salvemini jsandrea@garlic.com or go to http://www.cysadistrict2.org/odp.htm

 

 

Parents and Players—Soccer legend Anson Dorrance, head coach at the University of North Carolina and former US national team coach, has written a short article discussing his views on how politics does or does not influence the tryout process. The article relates in an interesting way to the difficulty of making ODP selections, and the challenge this poses for players. This is valuable reading for both ODP hopefuls and their parents.
