About the Rush
Girls from across Northwest Wisconsin, playing as one team.
Any girl whose home association doesn’t offer a girls’ team can register directly with the Namekagon Rush. If your association does have one, choose the cross-roster option and the Rush committee will confirm eligibility.
Hayward administers the program because it hosts the high school girls’ team these players grow into. The Namekagon River, which runs through all the member communities, gives the team its name.
Is the Namekagon Rush a co-op?
An official co-op through the Wisconsin Amateur Hockey Association (WAHA) is defined as two or three teams. Therefore, the Namekagon Rush is a co-op in spirit, not on paper. WAHA states that girls may play with the closest girls' team if their association does not offer a girls' team.
What are the options for registering?
Any girl living in this area may register directly with the Namekagon Rush if their home association does not offer a girls' team. Or you may cross-roster. Please register with the cross-roster option, and then the Namekagon Rush committee will determine eligibility.
What are the volunteer requirements?
Parents of players completely run home tournaments, assist with locker-room monitoring on a rotating basis, and cover the concession stand during home games.
Will Namekagon Rush gear be available?
Yes! A fan apparel store is opening soon — email the club and we'll let you know when it opens.
