Idaho Rush SOccer Club

Developmental U9-U16 teams will play together through both a fall and spring season. Teams in the U19 age groups play separate fall and spring seasons.

Games for the fall season generally begin the Saturday after Labor Day and run through the end of October / first week into November. The spring season generally begins in the middle of March and runs through to the middle of May.

Pre-season practices for both seasons may begin as soon as two-three weeks before the first game, depending upon the readiness of your coach and team to begin practice.

Generally there is one game per week and games are almost always on Saturdays (until tournament week). Due to limited field space, a team may play some weeknight games and or a double header on a Saturday.

Location of games for the Developmental seasons alternate from east to west locations. In the fall games are played at the Simplot Soccer Complex while spring games are played at the Optimist Soccer Complex.

Because our membership is made up of players and teams from all over the valley, Idaho Rush Soccer Club see the value in alternating game locations so that members have the opportunity to play closer to home, and we are working to accommodate a limited number of games in the alternate location (optimist fall / Optimist spring) if that location is a better fit for your team.

All coaches, team managers and assistant referees are parent volunteers. Each team fills those three positions from the team parent pool or finds someone other than a parent to fill the positions. If the team cannot find volunteers to fill the positions, the team will be disbanded with no refunds issued.

PURPOSE:

The Rush Development League (RDL) provides a mid-level competitive play while developing players, coaches and referees without the additional costs and commitment of time required by highly competitive leagues. There is no travel out of town, although some travel in the Boise metro area for practices and games may be required. Players are guaranteed 50 percent playing time during the season and tournament play.
