By the high school ages of U15-U19, Rush Union WI will form select girl’s teams for the fall and boy’s teams for the spring. Players generally then play for their high school teams during their non-club season. Since for many, high school soccer will be the single highest level of organized soccer they will play, it is one of Rush Union WI's goals to prepare all our players, to the best of their abilities, to be successful during this age of competition, and for a select few, for ODP and/or collegiately.
There is a high level of expectation from the player by the club at U15 and above. While Rush Union WI does not restrict player’s participation in other sports, the competitive nature of club soccer demands that the player make a decision when conflicts arise. To be fair to teammates and the coaching staff, once a player becomes U15 they need to have made the decision that soccer is their priority. Players are expected to make training sessions, tournaments and games a priority over all other sporting interests.

The first step for being a part of Rush Select is attending one of the four Regional Rush Cup & Showcase events to be seen by the Rush Select Scouts. Each event is designed to be a tryout of sorts where you are encouraged to attend with your entire team. Individuals are allowed to sign up too but each Rush Cup & Showcase is really a team event. This is designed this way so the Select staff can see the players perform their best in the most natural environment.
