U11-U12 Player Pathway

Once players reach the U11 age group, the majority of Rush players will choose to move on and participate on teams playing in the CO Rush Competitive Branch. For those who are not quite ready to play at that level, we continue to offer play in the Colorado Front Range League. These teams are usually a combination of multiple age group players (U11 and U12, etc). Teams will have volunteer head coaches and practice two days per week.
