Each month, Fremont Rush proudly highlights players who represent the heart of our club - those who live out our values through their daily actions. Nominated by their coaches, these players have consistently demonstrated one of the 11 Rush Core Values through their effort, attitude, and commitment to team culture.

Each player listed below is recognized not only by name and team, but also by the specific Rush Core Value they have demonstrated in both training and competition. These values are more than words - they are behaviors we expect and celebrate at every level of our program.

We call this group our Starting 11, but each month, our selections form a complete team. Every name on this list represents leadership, resilience, and the standards we aim to uphold across all levels of our program.
