So with round one of ODP tryouts out of the way, here's how I understand it, please correct me if I am wrong:
Today: round one of tryouts in the three Regions. Invitations to round two on the 19th will be out by the end of this week. (18 from each group in each region will be invited to the second round on the 19th in Columbia.
From the tryouts on the 19th, invitations will be issued to come to sub regionals.
From the sub regionals, Teams will be formed from each age group, and those who didn't make it can try again next year.
Net of it all, one Team in each age group.
This is fine, however, my first impression of this new way of doing things was there would be accelerated training for those who aren't ultimately chosen for the region team in their age group, thus allowing for continued learning and development.
Did I get it right?
