[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not particularly, the top boy players go into the developmental academies run by DC United, Potomac or if somewhat less serious about soccer or a little less skilled, top teams at clubs like Bethesda, and for the girls, the top players mostly join ECNL teams at clubs like McLean, Freestate and McLean. ODP used to be where the top players went to train together, but now the quality has dropped significantly, the program is expensive for generally mediocre coaching, too much driving, and college coaches don't show up to ODP events. The college recruiting is all at the top tournaments, unless a kid makes it to national team pools. Can go via ODP but most don't go that route to national teams any longer, are directly recruited from being seen at tournaments and are invited to national team camps. [/quote] I would also add that if you play on the academY teams for HS you cannot play soccer for your HS team. [/quote]
