Program Goals - From ASA
Board Notes
- Insure equitable player
selection process
- Offer enhanced training and
competition for the top players
- Broaden exposure of top
players to college and regional coaches
- Prepare players/teams to
maximize their opportunity at Regional camp.
- Prepare our elite players to
qualify for Regional pool/team.

We need to overcome four
obstacles: limited training sessions, travel to training, lack of
resources for scouting players, lack of confidence.
To meet goals and overcome obstacles, ASA intends to implement the
following guidelines:
- The ODP program is designed to
provide an elite player training opportunities. It is expected
of these players that ODP activities will be their top soccer
priority.
- The annual ODP calendar will
be announced by July 1st of each year and be a 12 month training
and competition cycle.
- Players will be scouted at
Alabama tournaments (announced in advance) and coaches may
submit player reviews to the ODP Director of Coaching.
- Each district will conduct a
tryout by mid November and a statewide tryout will be conducted
by mid December for 91, 90, and 89s. Entry into program for
these age-groups will be by district tryout or selected by ODP
Coach to attend the statewide tryout.
- A committee comprised of the
ODP Coaching Director, college coaches, and designated ODP team
coaches, will select pools and teams.
- Club coaches on the ODP staff
will not coach the same age/gender they coach in club soccer.
- Players will be offered
district training sessions in addition to traditional pool/team
training. This will be conducted as player clinics and will
follow a program developed by the State ODP Coaching Director.
These will be at an additional cost, per session.
- Teams and Pools will be
offered as many competition opportunities as possible.
- June mini-camp and Summer
League play will be part of the annual program.
- Additional training for
individuals can be scheduled.
- Only players having exhibited
both a serious training commitment and notable competitive
performance will be selected to attend Regional Camp, even if
that means less than a full team goes.
