WHO WE ARE

Founded November 17th, 2007 The Borough Boys are a group of supporters who want to see a New York City team in Major League Soccer. The idea did not come out of no where, as there have been rumors that the Wilpon family, owners of the New York Mets Baseball team, are interested in building a Soccer Specific Stadium in the Queens area.

Engineered by Nick Laveglia and Paul Morabito, the Borough Boys formed to spread the word around the area of this possibility and support in any way we can our dream

OUR MISSION

The Borough Boys were formed to be a supporter's club for a NYC professional soccer team. Our City boasts more soccer fans than any other city in the United States and yet we are not represented on the professional level. We have huge numbers of soccer fans who come from every continent on the globe, and we therefore believe that a professional New York City soccer club would be the most successful and most exciting in the United States. As the official supporter's club for the nascent team, the Borough Boys' first mission is to help make this team a reality.

OUR NAME

Looking for a name that best describes who would be supporting this club, the name a few people threw around Borough Boys. When put to a vote this name ran away with the competition. There is no better way to describe the Supporters as well as the Club itself as we are the Boroughs of New York City.

OUR LOGO

Designed by one of our members, it is a crest with the famous pillar from the Brooklyn Bridge. The Letters BB mean Borough Boys, and the five stars in the Logo, represent the Five Boroughs of New York City. Finally, the motto, "Een Draght Mackt Maght", translates In Unity there is Strength, which we feel best describes our support for this club.

WHO IS WELCOME

The Borough Boys welcome anyone who wishes to support the New York City Football Club. We do not discriminate against race, religion, gender or way of life. The best thing about New York is its diverse culture and we hope that the Borough Boys reflect that with songs and traditions from all parts of the Globe.

However, The Borough Boys supporters club might not be a suitable environment for young children as obscenities are a part of the culture of supporting a team. We ask all parents to use discretion.
