MSYSA is excited to announce that Michigan ODP players and coaches will be heading overseas, for the third year in a row, for an unforgettable international soccer experience! From March 26 through April 4, 2027, Michigan ODP will travel to Germany and Italy for a 10-day adventure filled with competitive soccer, professional training opportunities, sightseeing, and cultural experiences.
Throughout the trip, players will have the opportunity to compete in three international friendly matches against local European teams, participate in a professional training experience, and explore some of Europe’s most iconic destinations. Highlights of the tour include visiting Allianz Arena, home of the FC Bayern Munich, exploring Neuschwanstein Castle, traveling through the beautiful Alps, and experiencing the sights of Lake Como and Milan, Italy. Players may also have the opportunity to attend a professional European soccer match, depending on scheduling.
Beyond the competition, this trip will provide players with an opportunity to experience different styles of soccer, build relationships with teammates, explore new cultures, and create memories that will last a lifetime. MSYSA is excited to see our Michigan ODP players represent their state on an international stage while continuing to grow both on and off the field.
