Not sure what it would take to get more kids held over. Just not have seen much change at all..Maybe get some one involved that has had success getting kids held over from neighboring states..Maybe giving some one else a chance to over see the program..sometimes fresh eyes bring fresh ideas



The new 92 girls coach told the group she had close to her whole ODP team in VA held over for regionals one year. She also was a past ODP region coach, asst. coach and recruiter for several different well known colleges. She seems to know what the region coaches and college coaches are looking for and is coaching the 92s toward that end. It seems to be a very offensive and scoring mind set, encouraging the players to be a little selfish - less passing and more shooting. Then again you can't win a game without goals. So maybe the 92s will do better at region camp although it apears they are starting with a smaller group to choose from.

True..some states field two teams in one age group..All the more reason for consistency with coaching staff and training schedules

It would be nice if the director of ODP for SC would actually attend the girls camp. If one person can't find the time to attend the boys and girls camp perhaps a director of boys ODP and a seperate director of girls ODP is in order. Last year Florida's lobbying by their director resulted in an entire team being held over in the girls 94 group. SC had some girls on their team that should have been held over by their performance on the field but were let down by having noone lobbying for them. SCYSA is not fully supporting this program.

Can someone explain what SCYSA does for South Carolina ODP?

Is there an actual program plan in place because over the last couple of years I have not seen much?

There is very little contact between player and coach. From my vantage point SC has a couple hour try-out then goes to a sub-regional and plays 3 games. A State team is then selected with 3 or 4 practices scheduled and off to Region Camp. What are other states doing? I would guess more practices, more sub-regional events, mini-camps.

What is it going to take to get more pool players at Regional Camp?

What's the advantage for a SC coach to have their player go to the regional team? Doesn't that in essence leave a hole in their team? (excuse my ignorance but I am a newbie at ODP)

Girls ODP notifications are flying across cyber space as we type...

Does anyone know if SCYS posts the names of the players that are selected for the '2nd round of tryouts'?

Does anyone even know how many teams at each age group SCYSA will take to the sub-regional event (2nd try-out)in January?

Or is this a secret like the entire ODP process?

Good article on Triangle FC's Mollie Pathman, a R3 ODP player that some of our U-17 girls have competed against at ODP, tournaments and in the R3PL.

Interesting that in this 20-paragraph piece, the writer never mentions what high school she attends.
