Partnership Opportunities

The Richmond Strikers is a non-profit organization, established in 1975, committed to providing a developmentally appropriate structure for thousands of children ages 4-18 to experience the game of soccer at every level.  The Strikers includes an elite academy system as well as a vibrant recreational league that gives over 4,000 players of all ages and skill levels the chance to succeed. Our top-notch coaches and Strikers-owned infrastructure ensure a safe and always-positive environment, which is why so many of our players return as adults to coach and volunteer. Most of all, Strikers exists to teach leadership, persistence, hope and sportsmanship—lessons that will serve our kids and our community for years to come.

As Trusted Partner, we work hard to bring the nation’s finest youth soccer teams to Richmond. Although the Richmond Strikers is a not-for-profit soccer club, we have paid professionals who provide the very best coaching and guidance to our youth, and who also ensure that every detail is ready for game-day operations.
