NMSSA runs a tight ship when it comes to the state budget. We are a non-profit organization that doesn't make money off of our tournaments and relies only on it's annual memberships. A big portion of your $20 fee is paid to USASA and US Soccer and the rest goes to NMSSA. What does this mean? Our bank account is small.

WHY does NMSSA want to raise money? Several reasons, but here's a quick list:

- Recruit, train, and mentor more adult referees

- Provide help and resources to all our leagues, which includes travel to Las Cruces, Santa fe, and Gallup.

- Host more tournaments, especially in cities outside of Albuquerque for all of our members.

- Send our league operators and board members to National meetings to build connections, gain support, access resources, and learn how to run better leagues and tournaments. 

- Youth outreach to help bridge the gap between youth and adult soccer. Attend local events and support the youth soccer community. 

- Create and develop new leagues to its members.

- Affiliate new leagues.
