From MLS NEXT, ECNL, ECNL-RL, Girls Academy, DPL, NPL, EA, and National League competition, Rush clubs across the country continue to represent the strength of Rush Nation.

This year, 33 Rush boys teams and 40 Rush girls teams qualified for postseason play, a tremendous reflection of the players, coaches, families, and clubs who continue to raise the standard within their communities. These achievements represent more than results. They show the daily work being done by Rush clubs to create meaningful development environments, strong team cultures, and competitive opportunities for players at every stage.
