What is 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:
Evaluate and select players in each ODP age group for a State pool of players from which State Team players are selected.
Advance the soccer skills of players in each ODP age group.
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
ABOUT ODP
:ODP, which is open for tryout to all players at the District level, provides the ultimate experience and training for the players selected. District III ODP players compete against players from other districts within CYSA-North, ultimately leading to the selection of state, regional and national ODP players. Each year several players from all over CYSA-North (including many District III players) are selected for national boys and girls teams. This program opens numerous opportunities for our youth players.
District III ODP tryouts start in May of each year, while the state tryouts are held in December of the same year. Regional camps are generally held in June or early July.

"I have great memories of my first experience with the Olympic Development Program! It was my first time competing for a position on a team without having my own father as the coach. It was nerve racking waiting for that letter to arrive in the mail announcing if I had made the ODP team or not!
I was 13 years old and I can still distinctly remember that I had a family dinner at a Chinese restaurant and inside my fortune cookie it read "you will receive good news in the mail soon."
The very next day I received the letter congratulating me on making the U14 ODP Team. I still have that fortune in my soccer box today! 3 district teams, 5 Regional, State and National Teams , and 2 junior World Cups later I finally reached my dream - playing in the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona Spain.
Thanks ODP for getting me started." -- Troy Dayak
