Top national talent will converge on both Coral Springs and Orlando, Florida for the US Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program (ODP) Boys and Girls Thanksgiving and Christmas Interregional Events. Continuing its tradition of elite play, competition and player development, youth from the nation's elite player identification and development program, US Youth Soccer ODP, will train and compete in front of US Soccer National Team Staff and leading collegiate coaches to maximize their exposure.

"This is an incredible honor for these young men and women, and another tremendous achievement for Utah's Olympic Development Program. There is little doubt that their accomplishments can be credited to the countless hours of hard work each of them dedicate to the game of soccer; and equally important, the tremendous support of family, teammates, and accomplished coaches in both their Club and ODP environments," said State Technical Director Greg Maas.
