The objective of our DE ODP Tryouts is for our staff to identify the top players in Delaware to be selected
for our Winter Camp and future ODP Events! This is a great opportunity for players to showcase their
ability in front of our Delaware ODP staff.
We are looking for players with a strong technical base, tactical understanding of the game, the ability to
solve problems on the field, the capability of dealing with the stresses of the game through mental
strength, and high levels of physical fitness.
The mission of the ODP program is to provide a first-class experience and assist with the development of
the players, provide experiences to work with our elite staff, help the players learn to perform in a new
environment outside of their comfort zone at their clubs, and provide a platform to be identified by East
Region scouts and college coaches.
