EXPECTATIONS

– It is required that players attend at least 1 tryout session to be considered for the state pool rosters.

– It is recommended players attend multiple sessions and all three if possible. This gives the coaches the most accurate representation of the player.

– Players are asked to wear the tryout jersey with dark (navy blue or black) shorts and dark socks.

– Players are asked to wear neutral gear. Players should not wear club affiliated gear to preserve the club-neutral environment within the program.

SPECIAL NOTES

– You are required to attend a 2026 tryout session to be considered for the 2027 state training pool and to maximize the benefits of the program for your son.

– Obstacles in timing with paperwork, uniform purchases, friendlies rosters, and the international trip will occur if your son does not tryout in the summer.

– You may reach out to the Boy’s ODP Director via email if your son cannot make a summer tryout session. The Boy’s ODP Director will make the effort to work with you, but there is no guarantee that he will be able to do so. It is expected that an increased number of players will tryout this year. Your son’s pool may not have the space for him if he does not attend a summer tryout.

– You may reach out to the Boys’ ODP Director via email if you have discovered the PA West Olympic Development Program after summer tryouts have concluded. The Boys’ ODP Director will make the effort to work with you to evaluate your son, but there is no guarantee that he will be able to do so due to roster capacities.
