Hawaii Rush Mission Statement
Rush Soccer is committed to providing an unparalleled soccer experience for all who have interest in the game of soccer. The Rush promotes the spirit of sportsmanship, the electricity of competition and the importance of pure enjoyment. The Rush accepts the responsibilities of teaching life lessons to our athletes to further their development inside the game and out. The Rush is committed to making soccer a pleasant, safe and rewarding experience for everyone involved, regardless of age or ability. 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. Through quality coaching, sound leadership and absolute sincerity, the Rush will work to be the best club in the state, nation and world.
The Competitive Branch is divided into three divisions, Youth, Juniors and Seniors. The Youth Division is for players from U11-U13. The Juniors Division is for players from U14-U15. The Seniors Division is for players from U16-U19. There is a Nike Team (first team) and a Swoosh Team (second team) in each age group.
Our Competitive Branch exists to allow any player, regardless of ability, the opportunity to take their game to the height of their potential. Players play with other players of like-ability with various levels of commitment throughout. The higher the level, the greater the commitment. The Rush believe in striving for excellence and as players progress, they are constantly put in new situations to provide a greater challenge if indeed that is what the player desires. For our top players their goals include playing on the Nike team, ODP state teams, regional teams, national teams, college teams, professional teams, etc. For our club, we want to push our players to "the next level". This "next level" may be different for every player.
Rush is proud of its traditions of taking young and talented players to the next level.
