Volunteers

Volunteers are essential to the operation of our recreational teams. Each team needs a parent volunteer to be team manager and coach.

Parents who volunteer receive $30 off their player registration.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer coach or team manager please complete the volunteer form and our Recreational Program Director will contact you!

- Set up a game-day snack rotation
- Set up pictures with club photographer
- Set up an end-of-season party

four Seasons

Each season will be an exciting play-based journey based on skills, coordination, and passion for the game. Players will be active and engaged while gaining confidence and excitement about the game. Seasons run for eight weeks and include one training and one game per week. The spring and summer seasons we play outdoors, the fall season we play futsal indoors, and the winter we play indoor soccer.

In-House League

What is an in-house league? A league in which teams only play teams within the same program. No away game travel required. Just a simple, Rush vs Rush set up.

The Micro Division of our Recreational Program is an exciting, fun, and energetic in-house league for players 4 to 8 years old! Teams will be formed based on age, teammate requests and coach requests. Rush aims to foster a safe, fun, educational experience for your child as well as a solid foundation for lifetime skills.

Uniforms

All returning players with uniforms from the last season will not need to order a new one!

All new players between the age groups of U6-U9, or players who outgrew their previous uniform, will be required to purchase a new uniform.

The uniform is an additional $30 and comes with a home jersey, away jersey, and a pair of shorts.

Purchase Uniform

Players of all ages will be required to supply their own shin guards and athletic shoes, preferably soccer specific cleats. Cleats from other sports such as baseball or football will not be accepted.
