Mission Statement

The mission of the River City Raptors Soccer Club is to provide a learning, nurturing, loving, competitive environment to develop soccer knowledge and skills.  This will be achieved by instilling a “family first” atmosphere within the club which includes the players, coaches, families and our community.

Philosophy

The purpose of the RIVER CITY RAPTORS SOCCER CLUB is to identify female youth soccer players in the individual age groups U8 to U18 in the North Alabama area who are able and interested in developing their soccer skills to a high level.

Our goal is to then develop each player’s technical, tactical, psychological, and physical abilities, through training and classroom sessions, as well as match and tournament participation.  Our first responsibility is the health and safety of our athletes.  Secondary responsibilities include the development of the youth athletes as soccer players as well as individuals.   We believe the development of ethics and character in our players is as important as their soccer talents.  

We strive to provide programs which meet the needs of its players, and to provide opportunities to all youth, regardless of gender, ethnicity or financial constraints and to instill the love of the game, good sportsmanship, and the standards of team play.

In providing higher level club soccer for female athletes, it is the intent of the River City Raptors Soccer Club to raise the level of soccer participation in North Alabama at all levels, from Recreational to the Olympic Development Program.
