Our Rush soccer team has been blessed with the incredible opportunity to travel together to Europe this summer and compete in two international tournaments! We will be traveling from July 23 to August 7, and will be in three European countries: Germany, Denmark, and Norway. We land in Munich, Germany on July 24 and begin our transfer to our first tournament, Dana Cup in Hjørring Stadium, Denmark, from July 25 to July 30. There will be an opening ceremony for all teams on July 25 and the first round of games starts the next day! Every night at Dana Cup there are discos for the athletes and on Friday night (July 29) there will be a fireworks display. After finals that Friday, we will travel to Oslo, Norway and compete in the Norway Cup from July 31 to August 6. Games begin August 1, there will be a festival for the teams on August 3, and finals and a farewell show will take place on August 5 and 6. August 7 we fly home! Our team is special because we have a group of girls from an assortment of clubs, states, and even countries! We come from Colorado, Idaho, California, and Ghana, and we are all so excited and grateful to have this chance to compete at the international level. We appreciate your thoughts, prayers, and support as we embark on this journey of a lifetime, and look forward to representing Rush as we compete.
