[quote=Anonymous]The point is if you are going to ODP for the training or hoping ODP is going to make your kid better you’re doing it for the wrong reason. And to those people, don’t do it.

For most kids it tops out at $500 and District. Participation in all the events is not required either.

At each stage you can choose to continue or drop out of the program if you are selected. If you not near a DA or ECNL environment it is a avenue for exposure. If you can make the Regional Pool that will more than stand out on a soccer resume. For many kids reaching the State teams is a excellent addition to the soccer resume.

Going through ODP at least once to see how far you can go is worth it Soccer wise. It is only worth repeating if you just missed the Regional pool or State Pool and you are not in a DA or ECNL club.

If college soccer isn’t in the plans ODP can be avoided all together.

But to put top end costs on something just assuming selection and advancement at every level is a bit arrogant and absurd especially when half of all kids that make District ODP don’t get the option to pay more than the $500 in the fall.

It isn’t cheap to go all the way but then again that is not a bill most of you will never have to worry about anyway. [/quote]
