Each U8 and older team will practice once a week on either Tuesday (5:15-6:15 PM or 6:20-7:20 PM) or Thursday (5:15-6:15 PM).   

Practice days and times are determined by the coach after the teams have been assigned. You cannot chose the paractice date or time. 

First practices may start the week before opening day.

What is the PDP program?

The Pre-Travel Development Program (PDP) is designed for boys and girls born in 2020–2016 who want to elevate their skills and prepare for future competitive soccer.

How often do players practice?

PDP players practice twice a week with a Delmarva Rush travel coach at Sandhill Fields. Training focuses on building technical skills, confidence, and game understanding.

When are games played?

Games are held on Saturdays at Sandhill Fields, giving players a consistent, local environment to apply what they’ve learned.

Do players travel?

No—there is no travel required for this program. All practices and games are held locally at Sandhill Fields.

Are tournaments included?

Yes, but only local tournaments. Tournament participation may be added at the coach’s discretion based on team readiness and development needs. Note: extra fees maybe required. 

Do players need previous experience?

No. PDP is open to all players looking to grow their skills and gain confidence, whether they’re newer to the sport or have been playing for a few seasons.

Is this a full travel commitment?

No. PDP is a development-focused bridge between recreational soccer and travel soccer. Players receive travel-level coaching without the full travel schedule or commitment.

Can PDP players move into the travel program?

Absolutely. PDP helps prepare players with the technical foundation and mindset needed to transition into Delmarva Rush travel teams when ready.
