More Than a Team

The River City Sting exists to create opportunity, visibility, and competitive excellence for women in football.

Our athletes invest thousands of dollars and countless hours to compete at a high level. They train with intensity, travel across states, and represent Richmond with pride.

This is not recreational football.

​This is commitment. Discipline. Leadership.

What It Takes to Compete

Operating a competitive women’s football program requires tens of thousands of dollars annually and can exceed $80,000 when fully structured across:
  • Travel through multiple states
  • Professional equipment & uniforms
  • Player safety gear
  • Field rentals & game operations
  • Marketing & community outreach
Most of this burden currently falls on players and leadership.
We are building a system to change that.

You Can Be Part of the Future​

Whether you are:
A fan
A potential player
A corporate sponsor
A community partner
​
There is a role for you in building the future of women’s football in Richmond.
