FINANCIAL AID

About Financial Aid

Southwest Virginia Rush strives to provide a high quality experience for players of all ages, ability, interest, and economic levels. In order to achieve this, Rush sets aside a finite amount of funds to award each year, based on the club’s annual budget. Generally, families who qualify for school nutrition program free/reduced price meals are eligible. Please read below for more information on the eligibility requirements or contact the Club Treasurer at treasurer@swvarush.com with any additional questions.

Financial Aid Consideration 

Financial Aid Applicants are considered based on the following criteria:

1. Financial Need – proof of need, as specified in the application, must be provided and will be held confidential. 
2. Player’s placement and potential for development in the club.
3. Family’s participation in club programs or events that help offset funding awarded. 

Financial Aid Committee

A committee consisting of board members and club staff will review Financial Aid Applications.

Payment Plans

In order to ensure that fees are manageable for all participants, Rush offers payment plans to the members.

Volunteer Commitment

Rush relies on its members for volunteer services. All Financial Aid Award recipients will be required to complete 1 hour of service per $25 awarded. Volunteer services include helping with the set up and take down of fields and events, assisting with filed lining and care, and volunteering time towards Rush programs. Volunteer opportunities will be coordinated by the Technical Director. 

Application – Must be Submitted before August 1.
