Players will begin arriving today for one of the elite college recruiting events in the country, the adidas ESP for Girls, which runs through Sunday. And TopDrawerSoccer.com will be there for every minute of it. Be sure to come back each day throughout the event for feature articles, highlight videos, and interviews with players and coaches. We'll also be filming, with full commentary, the coveted All-Star game on Saturday night.

The event, to be held at Mount San Antonio College in Pomona, CA, features 96 top recruiting prospects divided into six teams for the purposes of training and playing matches. This year’s event will feature mainly high school sophomores and freshmen to reflect the accelerated recruiting process currently at work in women’s college soccer. Previous events were mainly for juniors or seniors.

The usual plethora of free gear (allowed under the auspices of the Olympic Development Program), valuable workshops and additional perks will make the experience a memorable one for the players. The fields will also be surrounded, quite literally, by more than 100 DI college coaches, already trying to arrange their recruiting classes for the 2011 and 2012 graduation years. While a few of the players, such as UCLA-bound Sarah Killion and Stanford’s twin commitments Sydney Payne and Shelby Payne, are set with their choices, most are in the prime of the process and will be eager to put on a good display.

Among the guest coaches on hand are current Boston Breakers and former USWNT boss Tony DiCicco, plus national team playing veterans Danielle Fotopoulos and Shannon MacMillan.

The playing roster seems to draw heavily from U.S. Youth Soccer ODP regional rosters of last Thanksgiving, but not exclusively. Following is a list of players scheduled to be at the event.
