WHAT IS RUSH FEST?

Rush Fest is designed to give U12 players the most fun soccer experience of their life, with education, games, and memories they will never forget.

The event brings together U12 boys’ and girls’ teams from Rush clubs across the country and around the world!! Rush Fest marks the transition from 9v9 to full-sided 11v11 games. The week-long festival of soccer joins competitive games, training sessions, classrooms sessions, and a host of social events in one of the most unique soccer events anywhere in the country.

Rush Teams compete against one another in morning games that are bracketed for similar abilities and afternoon training, including keeper-specific training. Some of the top coaches from within the Rush family will be working with the players and team coaches.

Room & Board:

Players will be doing all Rush Activities at Trailwinds Soccer Complex located in Thorton, CO. Please look for accommodations in this area as players will be back and forth for activities and games during the week.

Logistics:

Rush opening ceremonies are usually around 6pm on the first day (July 7th) of arrival and departing flights are typically asked to be 4pm or later on the final day (July 12th). Once the itinerary is released parents will be responsible for getting players to Trailwinds in order to participate in training, games and activities. All of these planned activities will be supervised by a Coastal Rush staff coach assigned to a team for the week. Activities outside of the Rush itinerary will need to be planned by parent groups.

Coastal Team Fees:

Team fees have been calculated at $250 per player to cover event registration, coaching fees and accommodations & Coastal Branded Rush Fest team shirts and swag. Rush Fest has no cards or player passes so it is possible that players will participate on multiple rosters during the week allowing us to be extremely flexible during the event and allow some players to guest play with Rush team from around the country.

Fundraising:

Once we get players registered, Coastal Heja chats will be created to share info (Logos, Restrictions, etc.) and allow teams to fundraise as a group. Individual fundraising can begin at any time to allow for registration fees to be paid among other expenses. The rosters will be listed as 'Coastal Rush 2012 Boys / Girls' so we would like that to be consistent with fundraising language as well. Players have done calendar days, Vertical Raise, gofundme, etc. to raise funds in the past and have had a lot of fund bonding with new teammates in the process.
