Not sure what you meant there, so I will fill in some details.
Back around 2005 or so, some San Diego coaches complained that many SD-area players were being ignored in the ODP selection process. Coach BQ and others convinced Cal South ODP to have some challenge games (teams made up of SD-area "ignored" players vs current ODP teams) up at Irvine Valley College (where the ODP teams met for training once a month or so), 13-15 year old players, 2 boys teams, 2 girls teams. Results as I recall were fairly even except one of the girls games was a blowout in favor of ODP.
At National Cup games in Lancaster that year, we knew ODP coaches were watching (the blue ODP jackets and clipboards) and one of the scouts even stopped to talk to me (I knew him from Presidio meetings). My son's team played badly both games and my son made his share of the bad plays, so I didn't expect much. Soon after that, my son's coach (former ODP coach before he resigned because he said he didn't like the politics) asked if we were interested in an ODP tryout since the ODP coach had contacted him. At the tryout session, it was clear that about half the players there were nowhere near the ability (skill, size, speed, etc) of the others; the coach asked the better half to come back for another session and selected his team from those.
After my son made the team, as they were preparing for travel to a tournament and thus giving one of the assistant coaches their contact info, the assistant (coach of a top-level Presidio boys team) was observed trying to talk the SD-area players into transferring to his club. I thought it was a joke, and I mentioned it as such to my son's coach. I don't know exactly what he did, but the assistant coach was fired from the program and I got apologies about the situation from two different people soon after.
