FC Richmond's U9 & U10 Magic and Mystx Futures program is an introductory program designed to introduce and transition players to competitive soccer. U9 & U10 Magic and Mystx Futures players compete in the Advanced Development Soccer League (ADSL), a local league featuring Richmond based clubs. Training is specialized with a focus on agility soccer movements, ball mastery techniques, team building fundamentals and a variety of small sided games in a FUN, energetic environment.  Players will be selected from a tryout process in May for the 2024-2025 soccer year that begins in August. U9 Magic and Mystx Futures teams and U10 Magic and Mystx Futures teams will be formed from these tryouts.

CONTINUING IN 2024-2025 - ADDITIONAL FUTURES LOCATION

FC Richmond will continue offer the Futures NORTH program and will be expanding the Futures SOUTH program.

The Futures NORTH program is similar to the current and past Futures program with the home location of the Robious Rd area (Greenfield Park, Huguenot Park, etc).

The Futures SOUTH program is the very same programming but the home location will be in the Moseley/SW Chesterfield area - mainly Horner Park (formerly Clover Hill Athletic Complex) located on Genito Rd just west of the intersection of Genito and Otterdale Rds. This location better serves players in the southwest area of the county and neighborhoods such as Brandermill, Woodlake, RounTrey & New Market, Fox Creek, Fox Fire, Summerlake, Westerleigh, and Magnolia Green. We are thrilled to be expanding into this fast growing area of Chesterfield County.

The Futures SOUTH program will practice and play home games primarily at Horner Park and surrounding areas.
