U10 Player Pathway

U10 teams continue to play in the Colorado Front Range League. In this league, teams play against opponents from other Colorado clubs and divisions are created based on the play level of teams from Elite to Recreational. There will be one boys and one girls Academy Level team at U10. These teams will be formed during kickaround sessions each May for the coming year. Academy teams will be coached by paid and licensed CO Rush staff. Other teams in the age group will have volunteer head coaches. At U10, the club offers three unique pathways. Click on the headings below for full details on each pathway.
