Club Profile

The Alaska Rush
In 2005, The Alaska Goldstrikers affiliated with Rush Soccer to form the Alaska Rush Soccer Club and now serves more than 1,000 youth players on an annual basis. Based in Anchorage, Alaska, the Alaska Rush Soccer Club is a non-profit organization established to provide unparalleled personal growth experience through the game of soccer and to promote life-long participation in the sport. With a firm belief in the value of sports in promoting the physical, mental and social well-being of our children, Rush Soccer is devoted to providing our members the finest soccer experience possible, teaching the fundamental skills of the game and developing athletes through organized leagues, teams, tournaments, training, coaches and athletic facilities.

Rush Soccer is committed to making soccer a pleasant, safe, and rewarding experience for everyone involved, regardless of ability, and we believe that all players are winners because everyone is afforded an equal opportunity to explore their potential and pursue positive outcomes on and off the field.

As a member of the United Anchorage Youth Soccer League and the Alaska Youth Soccer Association the club offers programs for players of of all ages and abilities through the Developmental and Competitive branches of the club.

Rush Soccer is Worldwide
In 2003, the Rush brand began its expansion, first forming the Virginia Rush. Since that time, Rush Soccer has grown to over 26 clubs in the United States and a membership of nearly 40,000 players nationwide. In mid July of 2009 Rush broke the mold yet again by starting a Rush affiliate 9,600 miles from it’s original home in Colorado, by forming the Nkomazi Rush in South Africa. Ghana, Gambia, Senegal and Togo and several other African clubs have all joined Rush soccer since that time. Rush Soccer also has a presence in Asia with Thailand Rush and is looking to partner with clubs in South America.
