Has there been any discussion about having odp for the 2006 boys for this year? Word is next year the 2006s will be considered u12 DA, so this group will never get to experience ODP. At the u11/u12 age groups in the past it has been a good experience for the boys, and most of the top kids participate.

I'm assuming the 2005 boys playing U12 DA this year are not allowed to participate in ODP?

This question just curiosity.
They have a list of 2005 players that are on the exempt list for tryouts, this is the "first" year 2005 players can play ODP. How are they already on a list?
Again, just curious. It is hard for me to imagine ODP surviving at this age group with U12 DA in a meaningful way accept for players that it is geographically advantageous to play there.

In the past, Jacob Daniel held a pre-selection camp at certain clubs (ours was one of them) and players at the camp were ID'd by academy director and DOC to participate. Those players evaluated by JD and his staff were then placed on the list to be exempt from preliminary tryouts at ODP. They were still subject to final tryouts.

Most attend the summer camp by invitation and paid X dollars to attend. No guarantees to make it based on being exempt, but most do. List this year looks pretty big.

The 2005 boys camp was last week. A lot of the players on the exempt list are playing u12 DA.

A friend's son and teammate are playing U12 DA and are also on the exempt list for ODP. They are both 2005 and i believe would benefit greatly from the ODP experience. I think it's a bunch of bull that they can't play DA and train with the ODP boys.
