The Board would like to welcome you to our fourteenth year of Rapids Club Soccer.  Club Notes and Announcements Tryout dates for the 2012-2013 Chicago Edge SC season have been posted:
   Merge At All Age Levels
Building on the successful combination of their high school programs, the area's two travel soccer clubs --
the OPRF Strikers and the River Forest Rapids -- are merging at all ages.
The combined club expects to field over 40 teams of players ranging in age from 7 to 18.
The deeper talent pool will allow the clubs to form more teams, and more competitive teams, at all age levels.
The new club will be called the Chicago Edge SC to symbolize that the club is based on the border of Chicago.
The merger will be effective beginning in May 2012 when open try-outs for next season will be combined.

 Fantastic atmosphere at the USA-England game and Gavin, before that game...:-) MEMORIAL DAY PARADE  Right at the start of this year's Memorial Day parade, the skies opened up and kids in Rapids uniforms scurried in all directions. That's when our president swung himself onto the Rapids rickshaw to finish the parade single-handedly. Along the way he picked up members of the U13 Boys team.
