National Training Center
The federation's headquarters is vastly growing and becoming more adaptable to its athletes. It is surrounded by 3 grass pitches and a dormitory area for the players.The Guatemala football association's second Goal project consists of two parts. Firstly, the association's previous Goal project - a national technical centre in Guatemala City - will be upgraded to incorporate dressing rooms, storerooms and a medical centre, and the pitch at the centre will be extended. Secondly, work will be done on the pitches at the regional training centre in Quetzaltenango in the nation's highlands.Women's football teams will be the main beneficiaries of the improvement in infrastructure. The Goal Bureau approved the project on 4 February 2008; the work will last approximately one year.
