There's an interesting mention of ODP in this article (an interview with Jerry Smith).
It's about 3/5 of the way into the article. If you search on "Olympic Development Program" on that page, you'll find the mention quickly. It's just in that one paragraph. The article was published yesterday, so it's up-to-date news.

Quoted from: Blues99, January 10th, 2013 00:39 GMTQuoted from: mvlafan, January 09th, 2013 20:07 GMTQuoted from: Blues99, December 28th, 2012 18:55 GMTJust curious. One thing that ODP needs to work on is making their events affordable to everyone.
CYSA District 2 is paying 100% of the expenses for all CYSA District 2 players attending the ODP Championships. District 2 recently put in place this ODP scholarship program to cover the cost of state and regional events for all CYSA District 2 players. ODP is a great program - and no cost to CYSA District 2 players.
That's great that they can offer it free of cost. I got the 411 on how they are able to do it, and also found out that our district(6) didn't want to implement the same program because their main concern are the rec players and keeping cost as low as possible to them. I'm also a little disappointed that the cost for this tournament went from $950 last year to $1175 this year. The cost for the ODP National Camp, which is also later this month went up as well. That's around $2000 in one month for those "lucky" parents.
That's unfortunate. Offering the program free of charge would be huge. I can't figure where the $1175 per player expense comes from unless part of it goes toward subsidizing the coaches’ expenses. Even then, it seems extreme.

OO Cal North results
Lost to Cal South 2-0. 1-0 for most of the game then a very late fluke goal.
Tied Nevada 0-0. Lots of shot for Cal North but none went in.

Hopefully, each individual had a positive experience. Collectively, from a W-L-D perspective, the teams' performances appear to be about average for the event:
97G: 0-1-2
98G: 1-0-2
99G: 1-1-1
00G: 0-2-1

Girls had a great time in Vegas. The play on the field was much better than the score indicated. We would do it again if selected.
