Bahamians Elliot Bain, Sean Walker and Danial Shahidi make the Rush Select Team.

The 2013/14 Rush Select program has seen record nominations and opportunities for the best players in the Rush Nation.  There were close to 700 players nominated for the ten age groups who are all in the running for some of the best opportunities available for youth soccer players in the US.  We have continued with our ID camps at the youngest two age groups to enable the coaching staff to nail down the top players in each age group.  This is assisted by the Rush Fest which is now building to a size that many of our top U12 players can be seen by the Select Coaching Staff at this pre-select event.

In addition to the Presidents Day Tournament, Open Cup and Surf cup that have been regular events over the past few years, players from this year’s pool have the opportunity to travel to Real Madrid in Spain, Atlanta in Italy and Ajax in Holland, which will include visits and training at the professional clubs and the National training centers of those countries.

Domestically we have opened up the tournaments to the Desert Classic to give more of our younger players the opportunity and the Disney Cup to give our top High School players that are not playing US Developmental Academy to be seen at one of the best Showcases in the Nation.

Below are the list of players that are playing this February in the Presidents Day Tournament and Desert Classic in Phoenix.
