GEORGIA RUSH
GEORGIA RUSH FIRST COLLEGE BOUND TOUR
In July, Georgia Rush Technical Director Russell Finch implemented the club’s first College Bound Tour. The tour is designed to better introduce its players to not only college coaches, but also various college cam- puses. The tour allowed Georgia Rush players to experi- ence small, medium and large campuses which included NCAA Division 1, 2, 3 and NAIA soccer programs. The Rush players spent four days in a van, traveling through
Georgia and South Carolina. They toured college campuses during the day, met the programs’ coaching staff, asked questions, and trained at the collegiate facilities. At night, the players were fortunate enough to play at clubs such as South Carolina United, where college coaches were given Rush scouting brochures that included the players GPAs, preferred playing positions, graduation dates, and a small list of achievements. The schools visited on the tour included Georgia State, Furman, Clemson, University of South Carolina, College of Charleston, and Georgia Southern. "The tour was a great success; the players got to ask questions regarding the programs, a typical college experience, and campus life and also personally meet the coaching staff”, stated Russell Finch, Georgia Rush Technical Director. “South Carolina United
was a great host and all the schools were extremely professional and accommodating. The players were also exposed to similar traveling conditions of those when playing in a college program. They stayed four to a room, had team breakfasts, trained and played for four days straight, did team bonding events at the hotel, and abided by team curfews. It was a lot of work in regards to organization, setting up all the meetings, and campus tours but that's what separates Rush from everyone else, the work we put in to better develop our players and the overall experience the kids walk away with. You didn't have to want to play in college to come on the tour, I know college soccer isn't for all our players but every player that returned from the tour had a better idea of the kind of campus where they'd prefer to spend four to five years studying. I'm looking forward to next year's tour with our current U15 girls and boys."

RUSH MICRO KICKS OFF IN HAWAII
Although the Rush has numerous partners that have had the program in place for years, the concept is new to the islands.
Now a major player in youth soccer in the state, Hawaii Rush just celebrated its 6th year in existence. We have had a great impact in our community and statewide and the numerous programs offered to the members are a big part of the success. Our Developmental Division has been one of the fastest growing programs for the club and overall in the soccer community. This year we started our newest program, Micro Soccer. The idea is well established and many of our partners, nationwide, enroll hundreds of youngsters each year. But the program is new to the islands and we are proud to have the opportunity to offer it to our members and the community. The program provides the ideal environment for teaching 5-7 year olds the fundamentals of the game, pressure free. Its platform consists of systematic technical training and small-sided games. At
all times players will be encouraged to express their creativity and skill rather then worry about losing. For more info please visit our website
