text: # Colorado Rush Women
  
  The senior women's Colorado Rush team was a women's soccer team based in Littleton, Colorado, that most recently competed in the Rockies Division of the Mountain Conference of the Women's Premier Soccer League's (WPSL) Central Region. It suspended play after the 2022 WPSL season and was succeeded as the Rush Soccer WPSL club in Colorado by Flatirons Rush SC, based in Arvada, Colorado. Colorado Rush's youth teams and academy continue to operate under the name.
  
  ## History
  
  The Colorado Rush parent organization's history dates back to 1997, when Club Columbine and Lakewood United Soccer Club announced that they were merging.
  
  Colorado Rush founded its senior women's team in 2010 to play in the USL W-League, becoming the Denver-area successor to the unaffiliated Real Colorado Cougars, which had folded after the 2009 season. The W-League disbanded in November 2015. Colorado Rush, which continued operating as youth teams and an academy, re-established a senior side in 2020 to compete in the WPSL but were unable to compete until the 2021 due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sports. After finishing 5th in its division in the 2022 WPSL season, the team did not compete in the 2023 season.
  
  ## Players
  
  Lindsey Horan, who played as a midfielder for the Rush's men's and W-League teams in lieu of playing high school soccer, became the first pre-collegiate American women's soccer player to sign a professional contract with an overseas club when she agreed to terms with French club Paris Saint-Germain in 2012.
