The New Mexico Runners are Rio Rancho and New Mexico’s 1st Major Arena Soccer League team!
The mission of the New Mexico Runners Arena Soccer organization is to provide affordable family friendly sports entertainment to the community of Rio Rancho, New Mexico, and its surrounding areas featuring an intense as well as exciting sports atmosphere.
The concept for the Runners was developed over a 6 month process to bring sports to the City of Rio Rancho. Co-Founders Andres Trujillo and his father Edwin Trujillo created TRU Sports Properties, LLC with the mission to work on something together to further develop their relationship while making a positive impact in the community.
Andres and Edwin want to build the soccer business into a family affair by bringing on members of their family including Andres' sister Angelica Delgado as a Sales Director and his uncle James Baca overseeing ticketing.
Andres' experience in the sports industry extends from his radio days at ESPN Radio KQTM-FM in Rio Rancho to owning, operating and investing in local sports teams including professional indoor football and soccer.
Edwin is a successful businessman having owned his own company as an electrician for over 20 years.
Both Andres and Edwin believe that quality of life increases because of sports teams and in turn more people invest in their own community. Everyone is looking to be a part of something BIG and the New Mexico Runners Major Arena Soccer League team is the next BIG thing to happen in New Mexico!
