Promoted Together. A Thank You To All The Raptors Out There!

Our journey to the Czech Women's 1st Division wasn't achieved by one team, one season, or one group of players.

It is the result of eight years of hard work from players, coaches, physios, volunteers, staff and supporters who helped build Prague Raptors Women into what it is today.

Many of the people who laid the foundations for this success weren't on the pitch for the final whistle. Some moved away, some retired, some coached, volunteered or supported the club behind the scenes. Every one of them helped move this programme forward and played a part in getting us to this moment.

This achievement belongs not only to the squad that secured promotion, but to every player who wore the shirt, every coach who shared their knowledge, every volunteer who gave their time and every supporter who believed in what Prague Raptors Women could become.

There are too many of you to mention who helped lay the foundations for this achievement, but you know who you are. Thank you.

On to this season: A special thank you to Lucie Martínková, Francisco Samagaio and Wojtek Karwinski. Your hard work, support, belief and leadership helped bring out the best in this group and played a huge role in making promotion a reality.

To Anna Osterthun, Raptors OG and one of the true cornerstones of Prague Raptors Women. Through years of dedication, leadership, resilience and unwavering commitment, you have helped shape the culture of this team and define what it means to wear the badge.

To our captain this season, Tereza Vytlačilová, thank you for leading by example every day. Your passion, commitment and belief in this team have helped shape the culture of Prague Raptors Women and inspired those around you. Your leadership played a huge role in one of the greatest achievements in our history.

To the entire squad that shared in this triumph, thank you for your commitment, sacrifice and belief throughout the season. Every training session, every match and every challenge helped get us across the line.

Thank you to Eliška Remešová, Tereza Hoffmannová and Aoife McKevitt, who all contributed valuable minutes during this promotion season. While they weren't part of the A-team squad at the end of the campaign, they played an important role in helping us achieve promotion and will always share in this success.

To Mikki and everyone involved with Prague Raptors Women B, thank you for providing a platform for players to develop, stay match-ready and continue growing. Your support has been an important part of the success of the women's programme.

And finally, to our fans. Thank you for every cheer, every away trip, every message, every social media comment and every moment of support. Whether you've been with us since our first season or joined us along the way, you've helped make this journey special.

This promotion belongs to all of you.

Once a Raptor, Always a Raptor.
