The Rapids Adidas Alliance

Colorado Rapids Youth Soccer Club (CRYSC) is excited to be part of the Rapids Adidas Alliance, a unique partnership connecting member clubs across regions to create a unified soccer family. With partner clubs in Rio Grande, New Mexico, and Rapid City, South Dakota, this alliance allows member organizations to access exclusive resources, including shared curriculum development, CRYSC event participation, and in-stadium educational opportunities for coaches and staff. Together, CRYSC and its Adidas Alliance partners are working to elevate youth soccer, provide enriching experiences, and build a strong community of players and supporters.

The New Mexico Rapids SC has been serving Albuquerque and surrounding areas since 2001, fielding youth teams from ages 4 to 19. As a premier club participating in leagues like the Girls Academy and Boys ECNL, New Mexico Rapids SC is dedicated to player growth and community engagement. Similarly, the Black Hills Rapids SC in South Dakota, formed through a merger in 2014, offers a range of opportunities, from recreational soccer for hundreds of players to advanced training aligned with the Colorado Rapids Development Academy. Both clubs emphasize high-quality, player-centered development and are proud to help youth players reach their potential on and off the field, embodying the mission and vision of the Rapids Adidas Alliance.
