TUCSON, Ariz. – FC Tucson announced that Gladden Farms, a popular master-planned lifestyle community featuring new homes in Marana, has become one of the team’s exclusive community partners, providing financial support to help fuel and underwrite costs for the 2022 season.
Gladden Farms is one of the largest, most active and affordable communities within northwest Tucson. Located just west of Interstate 10 in northern Marana, it features new construction homes, built by nationally recognized home builders, starting in the low $300,000s.
“Gladden Farms is excited to support FC Tucson and to ensure the team continues to thrive and excite fans throughout southern Arizona and beyond,” said Dean Wingert, head of Crown West Land Group. “This partnership is in keeping with our philosophy of supporting activities that offer Tucson families and individuals of all ages lively, entertaining and inclusive experiences.”
Gladden Farms is the presenting sponsor of the FC Tucson match on Saturday, July 23, and will be donating 100 event tickets for FC Tucson fans. Gladden Farms will also host three FC Tucson Soccer clinics at its two new, regulation-size soccer fields located at 12205 N. Tangerine Farms Road. FC Tucson will provide coaches, equipment and instruction including select FC Tucson players. Gladden Farms will cover the cost of registration for up to 100 players per clinic for a total of 300 paid registrations and will gift an FC Tucson match ticket to each of these players.
“FC Tucson greatly appreciates Gladden Farm’s generous support,” said FC Tucson President Amanda Powers. “Their sponsorship takes on new significance as we work together on soccer camps and clinics at the new Gladden Farms soccer fields with the goal of introducing more youth and adults throughout Tucson to this amazing sport.”
The new Gladden Farms fields will open on June 10, at 9 a.m. following a public ribbon-cutting and celebration.
“We invite soccer fans, players and those wanting to know more about the sport to the June 10 grand opening event,” Wingert added. “There will be sports and family activities, games, entertainment, giveaways (including 100 presenting match tickets), food and refreshments, and special guests will include FC Tucson’s president, the mayor of Marana, and leadership from Crown West Land Group.”
