Elite teams represent the most competitive teams within the RKYSC structure. These teams may be comprised of players from all RKYSC geographic areas with the intent of fielding the strongest possible team. The Elite team will select the top players in each age group beginning at the U11 age group. Depending on the quality and number of players at the tryouts, there could be multiple Elite teams in an age group. Most of our U11 – U19 Elite teams compete in the Virginia NPL / VA Premier League (VAPL) and numerous prestigious tournaments. In the age groups where multiple Elite teams are formed, some of the teams compete either in the Advanced Development Soccer League (ADSL) or the Virginia Soccer League (VSLi).

The Richmond Kickers U9/U10 program is the strongest developmental program in the region with an innovative format for players ages 8-9. The U9/U10 program has been meticulously designed to provide additional emphasis on technical and tactical instruction under the guidance of the region’s top coaches.  The pioneering format offers a seamless transition from the highly successful Advanced Development Program (ADP) for players ages 6-7 to Kickers travel teams.

Competing in the Advanced Development Soccer League (ADSL), the Richmond Kickers’ U11 and U12 teams emphasize technical and physical development while encouraging individual creativity and expression.  The focus of the program is not on winning but on developing each player to his or her fullest potential and preparing the players for success in the future.  Geographically based teams train twice per week and participate in an eight-game schedule played throughout the greater Richmond area, requiring very little travel for players and parents.  

Richmond Kickers U13-U19 Classic teams are members of the Virginia Soccer League (VSLi) and compete against other teams from various clubs in the greater Richmond area as well as Southeast and Northern Virginia.  Team tactics and various systems of play are introduced into the training program and players are encouraged to solve various problems within the context of the game or a particular situation on the field. Sessions are designed to create a fun and enjoyable environment for players that are passionate about the game.

Fees for the Kickers travel program include up to two tournaments per season as well as winter and summer training.  Uniforms for travel players mirror the Kickers professional team with top-of-the-line replica Adidas jerseys and shorts.  

As an added benefit, all players in the Kickers travel program have the opportunity to experience the atmosphere and excitement of Kickers Pro soccer with a complimentary Family Pass, which offers admission for up to five family members to all Richmond Kickers professional regular season home games at City Stadium ($1,275 value).
