Where does Elko Indar train and play?The club is based in Elko in northeastern Nevada. Year-round practices run four times weekly—outdoors March through October and indoors November through February—with tryouts held at Mountain View fields. Competitive schedules take teams to tournaments across Nevada and into neighboring states, and select groups occasionally travel internationally for Spain’s Donosti Cup on a multi-year cycle.

When are tryouts and how can families join?Tryouts for boys and girls ages 8 through 18 are held at Mountain View fields with all skill levels welcome. Families should call Ramon Zugazaga at (775) 340-1473 or Juan Avila at (775) 397-2230 for current tryout dates and team openings, or email elkoindarfutbol@gmail.com with player age and experience.
