Every team counts on a volunteer coach to coach the team for the season. The coach will be provided with a Rush Curriculum and a Coach’s Equipment Kit.
This role is very important to help our teams have a successful season! We ask that each team provide a team manager for the season to help with communication and organization.

Recreational soccer stresses the participation, enjoyment, sportsmanship, skill development, safety, and teamwork aspects of the game. The goal is for the players to learn and fall in love with the sport of soccer.
Rush staff will support the coaches with coaching education tools and pre-made training sessions to ensure a great environment for the players.
