The nearly 300 players participating in the event have been selected from US Youth Soccer State Association and Regional level evaluations. Throughout the week, players will attend training sessions and compete in matches against other Regions, in front of U.S. Soccer national staff and collegiate coaches to maximize their exposure for selection to the next level of play.

 

With programs in all 55 US Youth Soccer State Associations, US Youth Soccer ODP, the original Olympic development program, is available to any player. US Youth Soccer ODP is the only elite player development program that can claim members of Major League Soccer, the National Women’s Soccer League, and the majority of current and past national and youth national team members, as alumni.

Region III and Region II played hard for a full 90 minutes, but neither offense was able to find the back of the net resulting in a 0-0 score. The 1998 Girls game saw lots of action in both halves but strong backlines and saves prevented either team from scoring.

1998 Girls: Region IV v. Region I
In the 1998 Girls age group, Region I took the top of the standings after beating Region IV, 2-1. Region I’s Rebecca Rossett acted quickly, giving Region I the lead within the first 10 minutes of the match. Jenna Bike found the back of the net for a second time this week, and helped put Region I up 2-0 in the 54^th minute. Samantha Bruder continued her week’s scoring as well, and although her 75^th minute goal put Region IV on the board, the match concluded with a Region I victory.
