The club is made up of 15 teams coached by parents and trained by professional soccer players associated with the Red Bulls and other teams.

Each year, the Raiders invite the youngest athletes in Mahwah to take part in the “Kinderkicker Program,” which teaches them how to play the sport. According to a flier being distributed by the club, the program “is an 8 week instructional clinic designed to introduce players to the world’s most popular sport. Players will learn the fundamentals of soccer though structured skill development, fun activities and small sided games. Our experienced coaches and trainers instruct in such a way that children will develop a love for the game and have fun.”

This year, the clinic runs every Wednesday from April 11 to May 30. All children ages 4-7 are encouraged to attend.
