Purpose
To create a partnership amongst clubs to enhance player, team, and coach and club development in the region and limit the time spent on travel for boys and girls U9-U12.
Goals
- To bring like-minded clubs together who are committed to enhancing their program offerings while growing the sport of soccer in their community.
- To create a competitive platform for players and teams while minimizing regional travel.
- To share resources that will enable clubs to further player, coach and organizational development.
Standards
Individual clubs must maintain a standard of competition and compliance with “best operational practices” to enhance player and club development as prescribed by the governing bodies of soccer including WYSA, USYSA, USSF, and FIFA. Clubs will be evaluated to ensure adherence to the series principle. To be considered for participation, teams will need to meet certain requirements and maintain standards that ensure sustainability, transparency and accountability; most importantly, a safe and constructive playing, working and learning environment for players, officials and coaches.
Features
An important priority of the series is to eliminate the pressure to win at an early age. Winning, to either maintain a team’s position in a league or, to secure the right for promotion, can contribute to decisions at the club level that can be counter-productive to player and team selection and development. Changing the environment and condition of competition best allows for the attainment of the goal to develop players in the league. We will do this using the EDS Star System.
EDS Schedule
Rush Wisconsin West will be hosting 1 event in Fall of 2017 on October 14th. Interested teams please contact us by October 1 at [email protected]m.
