RUSH SOCCER CORE VALUES ACCOUNTABILITY: Be accountable for your actions and hold others accountable for their actions. Who am I ultimately accountable to, and who judges my work? ADVICE : Seek out advice and aspire to be the best. In order to learn, we must be open to learning and consider the advice of others. Are you coachable? EMPATHY: Empathy is at the core of solid relationships. ENJOYMENT: Enjoy your work; this is a gift. The desires of happy, diligent workers are satisfied. HUMILITY: Apologize when you make a mistake. Forgive others and do not look back. LEADERSHIP : Leaders strive to be trustworthy, honest, and sincere. They possess traits such as integrity and honor. They are willing to serve others and sacrifice their own interests. Leaders are constructive and hardworking PASSION : Passion always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. Passion never fails. RESPECT: Respect everyone. Respect the opponent, rules, colleagues, superiors, and subordinates. Be thoughtful and considerate. SAFETY: Our environment is safe. This includes the office, our travels, the fields, and our bodies. Safety is not only physical safety from harm, but safety from ridicule and attack. We are comforted and encouraged in the club. We portray self-control and kindness to our staff, colleagues and players. TENACITY: To be successful, persevere. Persevere but do not be anxious. Fear no one. Be strong and courageous. Work when no one is looking, even when the circumstances are difficult and everyone else quits. Diligence never loses because it never quits. Out-work your opponent, and most importantly, work smart. Do not wait for external inspiration. The people who go far do so because they motivate themselves and give life their best, regardless of how they feel. UNITY: Together all things are possible. When your teammates are down, bear each other's burdens; conversely, celebrate your teammates' successes. A Model for Youth Soccer Our Values Define Our Culture
