The NJYS ODP program is a part of the US Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program (ODP), a national program as set forth by the 1978 Amateur Sports Act. The program is used to identify players for the state, regional and national teams. The program is a multi-step process that begins at the state level and continues to regional and national pools and teams.

Boys in the U15-U17 age groups should read this letter concerning participation in the US Soccer Development Academy.
