**Houston, Texas** (May 10, 2019) – **The Houston Dynamo | Dash Youth Soccer Club (HDDY)**, a nationally recognized premier soccer club for boys / girls is proud to announce a significant expansion in their Elite Player Pathway for the 2019/20 season.  Built upon the success of the [**Frontier Development League**](https://dynamodashyouth.com/development-academy/frontier-development-league/) (FDL) and its counter parts around the country, the [**Development Player League**](http://dpleague.org) (DPL) will allow for continued quality competition at the local and regional level.  Additionally, the expansion will provide inter-regional play and exclusive national events that significantly increase collegiate exposure for the players.
