RVA’s beloved soccer team, the Richmond Kickers, played well enough over the course of this season to make the USL Pro playoffs, and after their win over the Charleston Battery last week, they’ve advanced to the Semifinals. The Kickers will be hosting the Harrisburg City Islanders at City Stadium this Saturday at 7 PM, and they need as many supportive fans on hand as possible!
