WELCOME
TO
NOLA RUSH
Since 2019, we’ve been finding and featuring some of the best athletes from the greater New Orleans area. From coaching them on the ins-and-outs of the sport to honing their athletic skills, we’re proud to teach not only the love of the sport, but to also impart the ideals of good sportsmanship, teamwork and loyalty. That's what sets up apart: our commitment to the whole athlete. We want our athletes to excel in every area of their life, not just on the field.
WHAT WE DO
Track & Field
Indoor Track: November-Feb.
Outdoor Track: April-August
​
We are an all-inclusive team of males and females ranging in ages from 5-18+ years old. Our track athletes include sprinters, medium and long distance runners, hurdlers, and racewalkers. We have a strong group of field athletes who compete in shot put, discus, javelin, turbo javelin, long jump, and high jump.
Cross-
Country
Cross-Country:

​
Our cross-country team, known as the "Long Distance Lunatics" compete alongside our track team during the outdoor season. Starting in September, the Lunatics participate in outdoor cross-country meets where they run long distances through fields and forests.
Basketball
Basketball: March-August
​
​
We are proud to say that we have expanded our Club to include NOLA Rush Basketball. The team includes some of our track athletes and is coached by one of our founding coaches, Coach K. We're excited to see what this team will achieve.
NOLA Rush has been making a name for itself as the up-and-coming team in the greater New Orleans area since 2019. Our coaches train our players to perform at their highest level, maintain sportsmanlike conduct on and off the field, and always have a good time. Check out our calendar to make sure you don’t miss our upcoming events.

JOIN
OUR
CLUB
Finding an inexpensive track club to join proved difficult, so we started our own. We are a "pay as you go" club with minimal yearly dues. Our goal is to give athletes, who would otherwise not have the opportunity, a chance to showcase their talents. We will never turn away a child who wants to be a part of our team simply due to costs and fees. Check out our Costs & Fees page to learn more...
We hold annual fundraising events to raise money for the team. We also seek out sponsors and ask for donations. Every penny received goes towards turning dreams into reality.
