Shrink Rap,
Thank you for your service to the ODP players. Such commitments of time by parents and coaches play a huge role in helping young players grow. The process of learning what is acceptable and unacceptable behavior as representatives of the State team or simply as individuals is part of the ODP experience.
Players who take pride in their accomplishments, believe in their team and themselves typically perform well during Interstate and Regional events.
Ultimately, such results come from instruction and thoughtful oversight. There are too many outstanding players who don't participate in ODP for whatever reason and that needs to change if SC is to give it's players the best opportunity to be seen at the top level.
It's human nature for scouting coaches to gravitate towards the most competitive teams, which is one reason why an emphasis needs to be placed on participation in the program.
