Values of the Program Beyond The Rush Core Values (accoutability, advice, empathy, enjoyment, humility, leadership, passion, respect, safety, tenacity, and unity), the boys will have specific characteristics emphasized to develop culture to reach our goals. Family — The program will be a family comprised of every individual on the team. The individuals will support each other on the field and in social environments. Character: Respect, Integrity, and Class — Respect, Integrity, and Class – The Rush senior men’s program develops good people, not just good soccer players. These three character attributes will be demanded at all times. Competition — Competition will happen every day within practice as it does within life. We will have winner and losers at the senior boys level and this competition will foster a strive to achieve mentality that will be beneficial in the future beyond soccer. Mental Toughness — Mentally tough people thrive in adversity both on and off the field. Mental toughness can be taught and practiced, emphasizing that each individual is in charge of his successes and failures.
Values of the Program Leadership — Service based leadership that starts with the coach. Program leaders, team leaders, older player, and younger players all have a role on within the program. Leadership training will be provided to create an atmosphere of service and accountability. Work Ethic — Work ethic will be demanded from every individual with no exceptions. Players will not be able to take anything for granted and work hard for every inch of success. Passion — Players will play for the love of the game in a culture that creates an intrinsic passion to be on the field competing. Extrinsic rewards will hold little value compared to the love of the game. Habits— Habits are created by doing the little things right each and every day. These habits will develop you over time as a player to reach the goals of the team and goals of each individual player.

The committment to be at training and games is not to be taken lightly, but the Rush staff is flexible with other committments. You are growing into a young man and will be expect to communicate ahead of time and clearly (not your parents) any conflict you may have. This responsibility is on you alone.
