Yeah - that should take the politics out of it - NOT! Agreed, I think it makes it more subjective/political. I do think......there should be discussions between the ODP coach and the club coaches at that age. Just as some kids don't test well, other kids don't tryout well...but are hell to play against. In a good way.

Not so sure about that - the communication idea between odp coach and club coach may sound good but the reality would be the coaches would likely pimp their players just like 3/4 the parents on this board pimp their kids.

If they pump up a kid and he's just average doesn't that call their judgement/credibility into question? A lot of the soccer guys I know are very prideful and would hate to look like an idiot. And maybe the questions can be geared towards other teams kids. In other words.....the ODP coach doesn't talk to the club coach about that coaches kids, but about specific kids that he's coached against over the course of the season.

Expecially at the younger ages - the older age groups have likely faced each other for years and that may be easier to do.
