Rush Pre-Academy is designed for young players ready to build on the foundation developed in Mighty Mites. Players will develop soccer movement and basic technical skills while becoming more comfortable in a team setting. Guided by the Rush Player Development Model, our coaching staff meets each player where they are, building confidence and a lasting love for the game.

Pre-Academy is a great next step for players preparing for our Competitive Academy, while also supporting new players as they grow in coordination, cooperation, and self-confidence—skills that extend far beyond the soccer field.
