Players

Welcome to Momentum Soccer

This is where adults come to play, connect, and compete. Whether you’re dusting off your cleats after years away or you play every chance you get, Momentum Soccer offers a place to get on the pitch, challenge yourself, and be part of a community that loves the game.

We play year-round at Balloon Fiesta Park in Albuquerque, with leagues designed for different skill levels and formats. No tryouts. No complicated barriers. Just good soccer.

How to Register

The Momentum Soccer player fee is set at $100. If you are new to the league and don’t currently play in a sanctioned NMSSA league, you’ll need to purchase a NMSSA pass starting January 1st, 2026. The first time you purchase a NMSSA pass, Momentum will reduce your player fee to $80. Every subsequent registration in Momentum is a $100 fee per season. This gives you 8-9 games of play for less than $12/game. It also means that you aren’t paying an additional $20 on top of the $100 league fee. Momentum eats the cost for your annual insurance pass from NMSSA. The registration system will recognize if you have the required pass before registration.
*The annual pass is good from Jan 1 – Dec 31.

If you play in a NMSSA sanctioned league outside of Momentum, those leagues will require a pass bought through NMSSA. All leagues will need an annual pass from NMSSA starting January 1st, 2026 prior to registering for their respective league.

What does the NMSSA pass get you?

1. A $5,000 player accident reimbursement insurance policy. This acts as a supplemental insurance for players in the event of injury or damage to property during games and tournaments.

2. Access to all NMSSA leagues and events for the year without purchasing a tournament pass each time. $20 once a year and you’re covered in all of our sanctioned leagues and tournaments.

**Coverage lasts from January 1st to December 31st of the current calendar year.

Insurance & Protection

Every registered player is automatically covered by a $5,000 accident insurance policy through NMSSA. There’s no extra charge—it’s built into your registration fee.

This coverage is funded through the $20 NMSSA membership and requires no action on your part unless you need to file a claim. It’s there as a safety net, so you can play with confidence.
