RSM Soccer Club Raising Up a Storm- RSM Storm

Establishes strategic partnership with Everton FC


April 25, 2008

Rancho Santa Margartia (RSM) Storm Soccer Club, a community based, competitive soccer club within the Saddleback Valley, has announced a strategic partnership with Everton Football Club.

Everton Football Club is an English football soccer club located in the city of Liverpool. The club competes in the Premier League and have contested more seasons in the top flight of English football than any other. They are one of the top five most successful English clubs in terms of major honours, having won the League Championship nine times, the FA Cup five times and the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup once.

The partnership between the two clubs is set to enhance RSMStorm’s Academy by implementing a three-year player development program which will raise the level of soccer across Orange County and throughout Southern California and eventually across the United States.

Through the alliance, RSM Storm players and family will be exposed to one of the fastest and successful growing professional soccer clubs in the world. Everton have spent past summers in California for pre-season training trips and future trips could see the two clubs grow closer together. “An opportunity for our players, parents and coaches to work side by side professional players and coaches, such a unique opportunity will generate excitement and passion for any youth player” said Toki Rathor RSM Club President, “the opportunities our players will gain not only by annual development and exposure to some of the world’s best talent will only be the beginning, other future opportunities to travel to England for players, coaches and staff and exclusive programs hosted by RSM in Calsouth will be great for youth soccer in California and the United States” added Shaun Harris RSM Storm DOC-Technical Director.

The ongoing partnership will allow for exclusive marketing and development programs to the RSM Storm membership (players, parents and staff) and will implement Everton’s online player development tool -Everton way – which will assist with the current RSM Storm player development curriculum. Everton will play an important role in the current curriculum for developing players through RSM Storm and jointly through the Everton Way youth academy model.

As part of the partnership, Everton Academy coaches will provide technical assistance to the RSM Storm staff and subsequent annual visits from Everton FC coaches and players will be put in place to help the new Academy develop over the three-year period. Head of International Football Development for Everton FC, Tosh Farrell noted: “This is an exciting time, not only for RSM Storm but also for Everton. This opportunity allows us to put Everton's proven coaching philosophy - The Everton Way - into place over a sustained period. “Evertonway is the perfect tool to support player development and gives players across the world the chance to develop using the methods of a proven Premier League youth program that has blooded the likes of Wayne Rooney, Leon Osman and Victor Anichebe,” he added

RSM Storm has reached a high in generating such a positive partnership for its membership and the game of youth soccer. “We look forward setting a standard in quality over quantity and continuing to put club – player development and community first within youth soccer” said Harris
