150+ MISSOURI PLAYERS SELECTED TO ATTEND MIDWEST REGION ODP CAMP

The Missouri Olympic Development Program (ODP) is proud to recognize and celebrate more than 150 talented players who have been selected to represent the state at the upcoming US Youth Soccer (USYS) ODP Midwest Summer ID Event.

This prestigious event will take place in Rockford, Illinois, bringing together top players from across the Midwest Region for high-level training and evaluation. Event dates are as follows:

Girls: July 6 – 8, 2026
Boys: July 10 – 12, 2026

The Midwest Summer ID Event serves as a critical step in the ODP pathway, providing players with the opportunity to showcase their abilities in front of regional staff and compete alongside the best in their age groups.

From this event, a select group of standout players will earn invitations to attend the USYS ODP Interregional Event, one of the most competitive and visible stages in the ODP program. The Interregional Event will be held at the Omni Hotel in ChampionsGate, Florida, on the following dates:

Girls: November 21 – 25, 2026
Boys: January 14 – 18, 2027

Player selections for the Interregional Event will be announced shortly after the Midwest ID Event:

Girls selections announced: August 10, 2026
Boys selections announced: August 17, 2026

Missouri ODP continues to demonstrate its strength and depth of talent, with this year’s group representing one of the largest contingents in recent history. These athletes have earned their place through dedication, performance, and a commitment to development, both on and off the field.

We congratulate all selected players and wish them the best of luck as they represent Missouri on the regional stage. Their journey reflects the core mission of ODP: to identify, develop, and inspire the next generation of elite soccer players.

***about The* *PROGRAM***

The mission of the Missouri Olympic Development Program (ODP) is to identify and develop the top players registered within the State of Missouri, to promote development through quality coaching and to help these players gain recognition on the Regional and National levels. ODP is supplemental to what players experience in their other soccer environments (club, high school, etc).

For our players, we preach that playing with those of equal or greater ability is a tremendous teaching tool; one that will allow for maximum growth and development. That same sentiment applies to our coaches as well. ODP provides both players and coaches the opportunity to challenge themselves, while also representing their state, region and nation!

Coaches will be responsible for providing constructive, development focused feedback to both players and parents, while maintaining clear communication with program directors, fellow coaches, and administrative staff.

Administrative responsibilities for all roles include managing player evaluations, training session reports, and attendance records, as well as representing the program professionally at all training sessions and competitions.

Requirements

These roles are designed for experienced coaches who thrive in competitive environments and are committed to long-term player development, as well as their personal development as coaches. Applicants must hold a minimum of a USSF D License and have prior experience coaching competitive youth soccer. Must have strong understanding of player development principles for athletes ages 12 to 17 is required, along with the ability to deliver organized and demanding training sessions.
