HARRISON, N.J. – The Red Bulls announced Wednesday plans for the club’s new privately funded training complex in Morris Township, N.J.
The state-of-the-art soccer complex will accommodate a wide range of professional, academy and youth training programs.

Upon securing necessary approvals, the complex would start construction in 2022 and expected to be completed in 2024. Hanover Township has been home to the club’s Training Facility the last eight years and will remain so until the completion of the upcoming complex.
The new complex will be located on the former Honeywell site off of Columbia Road, within one mile of the Route 24 interchange with County Road 510. The 80 acres of land being developed will feature eight full-size outdoor soccer pitches and house the team’s front office staff.
Along with the first team and Red Bulls II, the complex will also be home to the Red Bulls Academy and youth training programs.
“We are fortunate to have the support and commitment from Red Bull to help realize our vision of developing a world-class Training Complex for our organization,” Red Bulls general manager Marc de Grandpré said in a statement. “This will further our pledge to develop, engage and inspire the local community through the beautiful game.”
Added Red Bulls head of sport Kevin Thelwell: “The development of the Training Complex demonstrates our unwavering commitment to the game of soccer in this country. The facilities and accommodations will provide our First Team, as well as our valued young players, with the highest levels of support necessary to succeed with our club.”
