Good afternoon Coaches, Parents, and Athletes!

According to the U.S. Air Quality Index, Chicago metropolitan’s outdoor air quality for today is “very unhealthy” due to wildfire smoke blowing in from Canada.

Rush Athletics USA is canceling all practices and training sessions.

We will post a home workout for athletes. We encourage all families to follow these recommendations from the U.S. Air Quality index:

People with heart or lung disease, older adults, children and teens:
Avoid physical activities outdoors.

Everyone else:
Avoid strenuous outdoor activities.
Keep outdoor activities short.
Consider moving physical activities indoors or rescheduling them.

For those who are competing, Coach Lincoln is recommending you stay indoors and keep windows closed to keep inside air quality healthy.

Thank you and stay safe! – Rush Athletics USA Coaches
