Let's hear what everyone is saying about camp.
10 being the highest and explain what they loved or hated .

lots of votes, but no explanations? Come on, let us know what's up.

Hated it....There was no 3v3! They asked me to takeover the ODP, Obama called, but I declined cuz 3v3 is the future of soccer. Trust me!

Good camp. A little un organized with so many teams attending. The other groups were a little better organized.
Training was good (B+) some coaches my dd worked with were better than others.
My DD had a great time.

I agree with Bigfoot, when it came to the training some coaches were better than others.

My DD had a blast and made many new friends along the way. The one complaint that
I heard from alot of the girls was the food. "It's college food what can I say"

My DD would have stayed another week if they would have offered it

My DD loved it too would have stayed longer if she could. She said the competition made her want to play harder and better. I saw her game more to a new level!I thought the coaches were great- really wanted to develop the girls.

Camp was fine but know they are offering Skills for ODP players only at $10 a pop.
I begining to belive this is more a fund raiser than a development program.

tryout fee $70 (2 sessions)
ODP fee $65 (1 practice)
Sub regionals $20 (3 games)
Camp fee $500 (3 1/2 days)

80-100 players

$50,000 to $65,000 will pay for alot of things.

i hear of players paying 35 per hr and up for skills, and paying 3k/yr for 2 practice /week, so 10/hr is not excessive. Your club coach makes 1500/mo doing 8 practices. This is 80 for 8 practices? You can do the math right?

I agree with all you said but one thing it's $10 for 2 hrs. or if you pay ahead for the whole 10 weeks it's $4 an hour. I can't think of the last time we got skills for that price.

Most (if not all) the kids we know LOVED IT! Price was reasonable considering room and board was included....they loved the 4th meal

It was, IMO, definitely worth it

Depends on the amount of players that attend vs the coaches avaialable.
To get much out of a skills session the palyer to coach ratio needs to be no higher than 10 to 1.
THan for $5 per hour its worth it.

Well last week 26 players and 4 coaches. for my money it was great. We will see tomorrow if it's more or less
