Tax credits for Guam youth football fields

Businesses that rehab or improve football fields run by the Guam National Youth Football Federation can claim tax credits. Business privilege tax credits total $3 million over five years starting FY2026 (Oct 1, 2025) and apply to unpledged business privilege taxes. Annual caps are $1 million in FY2026 and $500,000 in FY2027–FY2030, with a $600,000 cap per field. Excise tax credits total $2 million over the same period, with $500,000 in FY2026 and $375,000 each year after; any one field is capped at $400,000, and totals exclude credits already pledged to the Healthy Futures Fund. After five years, the Legislature can extend the program to use any credits left.

Competitive bidding for football field work

The law requires competitive bidding for construction, professional services, equipment, and materials on these football field projects. Contractors and vendors must follow procurement rules to win work. This can open more bidding chances but adds compliance steps.
