How accessible will the SYL ODP system be to college coaches and professional scouts?
Vermes: This program is not designed as a scouting service for college soccer, but the collegiate and professional system will benefit from what we are doing. We will allow the collegiate system and scouts for professional clubs to tap into our resources. This will provide player profiles and league information on a regular basis. We realize the importance of collegiate recruiting for players that aspire to compete at these levels, but it is important that we maintain our focus on identifying players for U.S. National Team Programs. Our league finals are well attended by the collegiate programs, and we expect the same for the Regional ID Weekends.
