The Rush Way - ‘Where the Trails of Passion and Purpose Meet Begins the Path to Victory’
Welcome to the home of Rush Soccer, representing over 39,000 youth soccer players nationwide. Rush Soccer is committed to the development of healthy youth through the game of soccer. With a firm belief in the value of sports in promoting the physical, mental and social well-being of our children, Rush Soccer is devoted to providing our members the finest soccer experience possible, teaching the fundamental skills of the game and developing athletes through organized leagues, teams, tournaments, training, coaches and athletic facilities. Rush Soccer is committed to making soccer a pleasant, safe, and rewarding experience for everyone involved, regardless of ability, and we believe that all players are winners because everyone is afforded an equal opportunity to explore their potential and pursue positive outcomes on and off the field.
Rush Soccer was formed in 2002 under the leadership of the Colorado Rush Soccer Club in order to broaden the scope of its proven coaching, player development and administrative methodologies to a national level. By affiliating with qualified soccer clubs throughout the United States, Rush Soccer uses personnel, technical and intellectual property exchanges to create efficiencies through economies of scale, promote player, coach and tournament exchanges, develop proprietary information technology applications, provide administrative and technical consulting, streamline branding opportunities and maximize potential for fundraising and sponsorship support.
Rush Soccer's primary objective is to develop a national level club cooperative system that offers substantial opportunities for national corporate sponsorship and foundation support, provides the framework for a national coach and player development network, and will serve a significant centralized pool of talent for consideration by European, MLS, NCAA, US National and Olympic soccer programs. Rush Soccer is looking into purchasing its own MLS franchise.
CAP (College Advisory Program) and REACH (Rush Equipment Assisting Children) are just two of several top notch programs run by Rush Soccer. Check out these and others on the main website.
Tryouts will be held May 2010. Home matches will be played at Manchester Meadows.
The South Carolina Rush Soccer Club will be sponsored by Nike and will be run by an experienced staff and professional soccer coaches. For more information on the SC Rush program contact Rob Dalton at 704-674-2693,
