Farmer’s NM Soccer Tournament Fields
The Farmer’s New Mexico Soccer Tournament complex is the location for the bulk of our fields. Directions and the field layouts can be found under the tab under Soccer Field Info. The Farmer’s NMSTC is effectively owned by five soccer organizations: NM Youth Soccer, NM State Soccer (the adult leagues), Duke City Soccer League, Northwest Rio Grande Soccer League, and the NM High School Coaches Association. The annual operating budget is about $400 thousand dollars. We pay for that based on rental agreement samong the owners, gate charges, and rent for special events. We have no sugar daddy to fall back on. We also have no interest by the City in building a 22 field complex in the middle of the City of Albuquerque, so this is the best we’ve got and we don’t have to worry about being kicked off for anyone else.
Alcohol and pets are prohibited at the NMSTC. Please leave your dogs and beer at home.
For the time being, we’re still dependent on protable toilets and you need to bring your own water. Depending on county politics and the generoisty of the New Mexico Legislature, we may get lucky and get some upgrades over the next two years.
Please note this change: every week, the field manager at the NMSTC will survey the team areas after each game and report back on what teams left trash. We’ll send your team a nice little $25 bill for that, as we get to pay extra for trash pickup at the complex. As we can determine exactly who left the trash, we’ll use a direct funding approach at that location.
