Key Programs and Services

  • Recreational: Our Skills Training and Recreational Soccer (STARS) program is designed to accommodate youth of all skill levels and requires no previous playing experience. Age groups range from 4-18 yrs old.


  • Academy: Emerald Coast Rush Competitive Academy is an alternative that provides advanced development opportunities for players 11-14 years old. It is designed for any player that is committed to improving their game. Academy style play has been proven successful at many top-tier clubs (domestic and abroad), and involves creating pools of players instead of teams. There are no set rosters, more playing time, more touches, more decision making, more learning and simply more fun. This method focuses on the technical development of each child without the pressure of wins & losses.


  • Development: Our Youth Development Program (YDP) is designed to introduce young players to early soccer skills and training, and provides an avenue for soccer players that are not quite “select ready.” This program improves the ball manipulation and psychomotor functions necessary to play in a competitive environment. YDP is not a year-round program and occurs for approx. 40 days per season as an additive option to our Recreational, Academy, and Competitive programs.


  • Competition: Competitive teams are available for players 10-18 yrs old who are interested in training and playing at a more competitive level. 13U teams and above also have the opportunity to compete in the state’s Championship Series.


  • Orthopaedics & health education: We emphasize health and wellness of members through a unique partnership with Andrews Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center. Our unique relationship with Andrews provides medical treatments and assessments for injuries suffered during play as well as education to club members, coaches & staff regarding concussions, injury prevention and proper nutrition. Team managers and coaches are provided methods that allow special access to services/providers within 48 hours.
