age groups U9 to U18 in the North Alabama area
who are able and interested in developing their
soccer skills to a high level. 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 the Decatur and North Alabama area at all levels, from Recreational to

"Too often we are scared. Scared of what we might not be able to do. Scared
of what people might think if we tried. We let fears stand in the way of our
hopes. We say no when we want to say yes. We sit quietly when we want to
scream. And we shout with the others, when we should keep our mouths shut.
Why? After all, we do only go around once. There's really no time to be
afraid. Just do it." -Nike
