February 5th marks the first match in the Southwest Premier League Community Shield between Valley FC Raiders (Gilbert, AZ) and Las Vegas Quicksilvers. This event is a home and away series with proceeds and donations going to local charities chosen by each club’s representatives. This event marks the first of its kind in the Southwest Premier League and hopefully inspires more in the future.
