US Youth Soccer Unveils Girls ODP Interregional Rosters for 2026-27 — A Pathway Worth Chasing

US Youth Soccer has announced its Girls Olympic Development Program Interregional rosters for the 2026-27 cycle, with the East, Midwest, South and West regions each naming teams across the 2009-2014 age groups. The rosters bring together the strongest players identified through state and regional ODP evaluations over the past year, all heading toward Interregional competition where regions face off directly. ODP Interregional events matter because they put the country's best young talent in front of national team scouts in one setting. Players who stand out at these events can earn call-ups to ODP National Teams, one of the clearest pipelines from club soccer into US Soccer's youth national team programs. For girls hoping to play at the highest level, making an Interregional roster is often the first official step on that ladder. The announcement also lands as US Youth Soccer shifts to a new age-group cycle running August 1 to July 31 starting this season, meaning families and coaches will want to double check which birth-year group their daughters now fall into before the next round of ODP tryouts. For players not yet on a roster, the takeaway is simple: state ODP tryouts happen every year, and consistent performances at club level, showcases and identification camps are what get you seen. Being named to a regional pool is never the end of the story, it is the beginning of a much bigger opportunity.
