The Nevada Rush Competitive Division is for players who want to advance their soccer development. With instruction from an experienced, professional coaching staff, players receive a more intensive, goal-focused, competitive training environment. Competitive teams take part in regular sessions that build technical skills and deepen tactical understanding of the Rush style of play.

When can I join?

Players may join the Nevada Rush Competitive Division at any time. If you are currently rostered with another club, you must obtain a written release from that club or wait until the next tryouts before transferring.

Players who are not registered with another club may be invited to train with a Nevada Rush squad in their age group so coaches can determine the most appropriate developmental placement.

Player Placement Process

Player Evaluation

Each year—typically in late May and early June—clubs run annual tryouts to place players on teams according to skill and fit. Because coaches evaluate many players in a short window, the tryout process can be demanding: some players may be missed, unable to attend, or too nervous to show their best. For these reasons, tryouts are only one part of how we assess players.

During evaluations, coaches review technical ability, tactical awareness, physical condition, and psychological readiness. Recognizing the limits of a single tryout session, Head Coaches and the Director of Coaching continuously observe players throughout the season at training and in matches. Ongoing monitoring gives a fuller, more accurate picture of each player’s strengths and needs.

Evaluations also consider factors such as attendance, attitude, consistency, and how a player fits within team chemistry. Nevada Rush conducts formal evaluations in December and April, followed by meetings to review progress and plan individualized development steps.

Player Movement

At times during the year, a player may be moved to a different team within Nevada Rush to ensure they are competing at the appropriate level and continuing to be challenged. Any proposed transfer must be discussed between the player’s Head Coach and the Director of Coaching (DOC) and receive DOC approval. Player development, safety, and well-being guide every placement decision.
