Will my participation in ODP conflict with my participation with my club team?
ODP is designed to supplement club training. However, there are times when conflicts arise. We work closely with our local clubs to minimize conflicts. Yet, when they occur, we ask our participants to adhere to the following guidelines:
- ODP training takes precedence over affiliated club practice
- Affiliated club game(s) take precedence over ODP training
- ODP games take precedence over affiliated club practice
- ODP Tournament (showcase) game(s) take precedence over affiliated club games and tournaments
- Region I games/events take precedence over ODP and affiliated club games/events
