Learn more about Sam’s experience with California Rush:
Why did you travel to California last month?
I traveled to Southern California with my family for a vacation.
How did you find a Rush team to train with in California?
My mom decided to surprise me by arranging a training with California Rush. I think that was a great plan because I am proud to play for a global soccer club.
How often did you train with Rush there? Tell us a little bit about your experience and how you were greeted.
Due to our travel schedule, I could train with California Rush 2005 team one evening at their field in Huntington Beach. I met with 2005 Team Coach Cesar, Coach Lucas and the club president Gabriel. All the coaches and the players greeted me with a warm welcome.
Did you make any friends that you will continue to keep in touch with?
I will be in touch with the coaches when we come back to SoCal again as it’s so great to train while on vacation!
Would you consider doing this again in the US or another country where Rush has a presence?
I will definitely consider training with a Rush club outside of Canada. With its global presence, I find the experience very cool.
Would you like to mention anything else about your experience?
I found it amazing that the California Rush team plays and trains outdoors all year long!
