The National Training Center (NTC) for US Soccer, located in Trilith, Fayette County, is set to open in April ahead of the men's World Cup. Backed by significant funding and inspired by successful European facilities, this 200-acre site aims to unify training for all 27 national teams in one location. Led by Cindy Parlow Cone, the project is deemed a game-changer for football in the U.S., promising to set a new standard in training and development for the sport.
"I think it will be the gold standard," says David Wright, US Soccer's chief commercial officer. "To have everything consolidated to one location is also a unique point of difference for us."
"It is an enormous site, spanning more than 200 acres in Trilith, Fayette County, and the hope is it will be the best training facility in the world when it opens."
Cindy Parlow Cone, the federation's president, has made building the NTC one of the defining features of her tenure, aiming for a central hub for the country's national teams."
Funding has partly come from Arthur M Blank, owner of three sports teams in Atlanta, illustrating a strong investment in the future of US Soccer and football.
