December 7, 2015
FRISCO, Texas (Dec. 7, 2015) – US Youth Soccer is proud to announce the US Youth Soccer ODP All-Star teams for the 2015 US Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program (ODP) Boys Thanksgiving Interregional, which recently took place Nov. 26-30 at Grande Sports World in Casa Grande, Ariz. Of the nearly 150 players that participated in the event, two rosters were constituted based on outstanding performance – one for 2001 and 2002 age groups.
Region I’s Dennis Mensah led all scorers in the tournament with three goals in the 2001 age group. Region I and Region III tied for the most wins with three across the two age groups. In the 2001 age group, Region III finished at the top by winning two games and tying a third. Region II edged out Region I and Region IV by one point in the 2002 age group as the difference between first and fourth place was just two points.
The US Youth Soccer ODP Boys Thanksgiving Interregional featured players that were selected from US Youth Soccer State Association and Regional level evaluations. Throughout the event players attended training sessions and competed in matches in front of U.S. Soccer national staff and collegiate coaches for the opportunity to be selected to a higher 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.
