Inaugural International Rush Cup Set for December 2022

As Rush continues to expand its global footprint, one of the most exciting results of such growth is the inaugural International Rush Cup, scheduled for December 1-4, 2022, in the Tampa, Florida area.

 

International Rush Cup (IRC), the club’s most elite event, will pit both domestic and international clubs against each other in a top-tier tournament that will attract college coaches and scouts. Rush Select teams will also be present for the event, showcasing some of the club’s rising young stars.

 

“Long term we want this to be the World Cup of sorts for all Rush teams across the globe,” Rush COO Justin Miller said. “We want to create an unparalleled location for college coaches and professional scouts to see the top talent within the Rush. This is why we have centered the event around our Select teams. We are excited for this inaugural event and to watch it grow from here.”

 

Along with college coaches, scouts from professional and semi-professional teams Flatirons Rush, Vfl Wolfsburg, Minnesota United FC, HB Koge, Aurora FC, Colorado Rush, Bluffton Rush of the WPSL, Cedar Rush Stars, Medricher SV 02 Duisburg, and Virginia Beach United will be in attendance.

 

IRC will also feature a three-day coaching education workshop for all Rush coaches led by Pablo Toledo, Rush Soccer’s Sporting Project Director, and the club’s top technical staff. This hands-on workshop will provide coaches at any level with tools to sharpen their training sessions and help better develop players.

 

Attending players will also have the opportunity to participate in a college recruitment class led by Rush’s College Advisory directors.

We’re excited to announce that Coastal Rush will be moving from the Florida ECNL Regional League to the Gulf Coast ECNL RL for the upcoming 2025–26 season. Over the past two years in the Florida ECNL-RL, our program has recorded over 200 victories, earned multiple state championships, and developed dozens of players now on the path to collegiate opportunities. We are incredibly proud of what our players, coaches, and families have achieved during this period. The Directors and Leadership team at Florida Club League have been outstanding and we appreciate all their leadership and support! This move to the Gulf Coast RL is a strategic decision that will benefit our players and families in multiple ways: 1. Improved Travel and Geographic Efficiency: The newly formed Gulf Coast division of ECNL RL includes clubs that are closer in proximity to Coastal Rush, reducing the burden of travel for families and allowing for more efficient scheduling. We expect this change to save our families thousands in travel costs. 2. Continued Access to Top-Level Competition: This division resembles the old NPL, however, it has been strengthened by the removal of lower-tier teams and the addition and/or growth of several top-level clubs. These changes should create a new and challenging environment for our players and coaches. 3. National League Showcase Access: ECNL has informed Coastal Rush that, in addition to attending Regional League showcases as we have done in the past, we have earned access to National League showcases for the 25/26 season. Also, ECNL leadership has indicated that we can expect an invitation to participate in the ECNL-RL Leaders Cup. (a new competition for the nation’s top-performing RL clubs) Coastal Rush will continue to ensure our older teams participate in high-level college recruiting events. NOTE: Coastal Rush has had over 80 players sign for college in the last 2 Seasons. 4. Stronger Alignment with ECNL Structure: ECNL has informed Coastal Rush that the Gulf Coast division better aligns our club for potential future promotion into the National League as ECNL expansion continues. While the league changes, our goals remain the same: to develop top-level talent, provide meaningful competition, and prepare our players for collegiate and beyond. We are grateful to our families, coaches, and partners for their ongoing support. We can’t wait for this next chapter in the Coastal Rush journey!
