We are currently working on the schedules for the Rush Kickoff Classic. Our plan is to have them published by the end of the weekend (August 5th) and they will be posted to this website along with an email out to the manager/coach distribution that we have.
The 11th Annual Rush Kickoff Classic will run August 17-19, 2018. Get your application in now to make sure that you are accepted to the tournament. The official deadline is July 17th, 2018.
Birth year will determine all age groups, please see the grid below if you are unsure which age group you are.
The Rush Kickoff Classic has partnered with PSE Event Housing to provide attendees/groups with the best available hotel rates and a smooth booking experience.
Our event is a “Stay to Play” event: A good working relationship with hotels is critical for the long-term success of our event. For this reason, teams or attendees who are traveling from out of town are required to book their rooms through our Official Travel Partner, PSE Event Housing, to ensure that our room blocks are utilized. In short, since the hotels are holding rooms for our event, we must use these rooms.
