The Illinois Youth Soccer / US Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program
is the elite player identification program in Illinois and the United States. The
US Youth Soccer Olympic Development Program has identified more players
participating on Professional and National Teams than any other program.
For the 2008 season, Illinois Youth Soccer & Everton Football Club of the English Premiere
League have reached an exclusive agreement to provide all pool players with access to the
Everton Way, online training tool. This innovative partnership will teach ODP participants the
techniques used by Premiere League players.
