The New York Red Bulls officially put shovels in the dirt for a new privately funded training complex in Morris Township. The 80-acre parcel will feature eight full-size outdoor soccer pitches, including a turf field and complementary training areas. It will serve as the headquarters for the team’s sporting department.
Architecture and design firm Gensler serves as the design firm for the club’s future state-of-the-art facility and March Construction is the lead contractor building the complex.
Representing a significant investment in the club’s future, the training center also will cater to all of the club’s professional and youth teams, including the Red Bulls II and Youth Training programs, North America’s leading youth soccer development system.
The new complex will feature a cruciform-shaped building containing locker rooms, a gym, dining hall, academic spaces, physiotherapy areas and offices.
“We are excited for construction to begin on our new training complex,” Head of Sport Jochen Schneider said. “We want to provide our players, both professional and our academy, the best place for them to work, train and improve. This is a great day for our organization.”
“Building the premier training complex in Major League Soccer is a significant investment, but one that we believe is necessary,” President Marc de Grandpré said. “Our vision is for this facility to be a source of pride for our entire organization, our fans, partners and the Morris Township community for many years to come.”
The training facility complex will open its doors in the fall of 2025.
