Regular Team Price: $2000
Play with Friends Price: $200
Regular Individual Price: $200
Why Choose Randall's Island? Sometimes, you need an open field far removed from your typical stomping grounds. If that feels like a move you need to make this spring to get your game on track, Randall's Island is the getaway you're seeking. A good time gathering spot for Dave Matthews fans and Cique du Soleil attendees alike, their dedication to providing playing fields for NYC athletes means your passion for playing the game is welcomed here.
Red Hook’s Field 8 is one of Brooklyn’s top value picks for Spring 2025.
Regular Team Price: $1250
Play with Friends Price: $125
Regular Individual Price: $125
Why Choose Field 8? A new turf pitch in a park that's been getting a significant upgrade as of late? Before Red Hook gets a full Williamsburg-inspired makeover, make it a point to play and stay in this quirky Brooklyn waterfront neighborhood, which tends to rise in popularity as the temperature gets warmer.
Want to play in a stadium setting with amazing turf? Then swipe right on Gaelic Park.
Regular Team Price: $1550
Play with Friends Price: $155
Regular Individual Price: $155
Why Choose Gaelic Park? Do you care about field quality and playing in an actual stadium? The home of the Manhattan Jaspers, Gaelic Park is a precious pitch that's located a few steps from the north end of the 1 line. There's also several parking lots nearby, so if you need a pitch with quick access in and out of the city (and avoids congestion pricing too), this new turf-filled castle in Kingsbridge awaits.
The top quality turf and bright lights at Riverbank State Park are back for Spring 2025!
Regular Team Price: $1650.00
Play With Friends Price: $165
Individual Early Bird Price: $165
Why Choose Riverbank State Park? We've covered How to Have the Best Time at Riverbank State Park, and if you need a new reason to pick this uptown pitch, we haven't really talked about how fantastic their parking lot and proximity to the 1 train is. So there's that (and also Sugar Hill Creamery's spring menu will be coming out soon).
Looking for a neighborhood pitch? Reinaldo Salgado Playground has two 7v7 leagues this spring.
Regular Team Price: $1650.00
Play With Friends Price: $165
Regular Individual Price: $165
Why Choose Reinaldo Salgado Playground? Playing in a neighborhood park surrounded by charming homes is the heart of NYC's soccer scene. We love the central Brooklyn location Reinaldo Salgado Playground provides our players, plus being steps away from cool spots like Marian's and Turtles All the Way Down doesn't hurt either.
Turtles All the Way Down is a bar that really lives up to its name.
