The unique concept will be used to market the club and to promote fan engagement. “We’re excited to launch our first working product with our proprietary version of a physical NFT, by giving it away at the Leigh Steinberg Super Bowl Party,” said Adam Roorda, the Blockchain Architect for LITH Token, “and there’s no better partner to do it with than Sibrena and Alex.”

The exclusive NJ Teamsterz FC NFT minted by LITH Token will debut at super-agent Leigh Steinberg’s 35th Annual Super Bowl Party, as the invite-only guests will have the opportunity to win the 1st ever NJ Teamsterz FC NFT by using the QR code at selected tabletops sponsored by NJ Teamsterz FC, supported in part by a grant from NJ Department of State, Division of Travel & Tourism.NJ Teamsterz FC’s Founder & Sports Agent Alexsi Geraldino is an alumnus of Leigh Steinberg Sports Academy.

Marketing NJ Teamsterz FC alongside LITH Token at America’s largest sports event, at the 35th NFL Super Bowl Leigh Steinberg Event, is a dream come true. Geraldino says, “Marketing alongside LITH Token at the 35th Leigh Steinberg Super Bowl Party will bring great exposure to NJ Teamsterz FC by way of fan engagement at the event, we’ll bring fans into Don Ahern Veterans Stadium in Bayonne by giving away lifetime season passes and to at the same time, the social impact of giving back will make a difference to some kid. We would not have been able to do this if it weren’t for the support from the State of New Jersey’s Travel & Tourism Division.”

Partner and CEO Sibrena Geraldino added, “Alex and I have always thought outside of the box when we market our club. American football to the “original” football is a great marketing strategy. Many NFL owners invest in pro soccer teams abroad but in our case, a former professional football player – Alex Geraldino – has found a way to market our American pro soccer team with America’s biggest sport, American football. We want a piece of that market share to bring fans to New Jersey. We’re looking forward to gaining new fans and giving back to Bayonne’s Special Needs Soccer Camp and Friends of New Jersey Teamsterz FC!”

GHOST HAWK BREWING COMPANY IS NJTFC’S NEW TITLE SPONSOR

GHOST HAWK BREWING COMPANY IS NJTFC'S NEW TITLE SPONSOR

NJ Teamsterz FC is excited to announce Ghost Hawk Brewing Company (Ghost Hawk) is the club’s new title sponsor for the fall 2021 NISA Nation season! Ghost Hawk will have premier signage on our 1st team’s uniform jersey and field placement at Don Ahern Veterans Stadium. We had a chance to chat with Clifton, New Jersey native Tom Rachelski, president of Ghost Hawk. Ghost Hawk was founded by Tom, Graphic Designer Steve Bauer, and professional brewer Chris Sheehan. Tom shared some jewels about the beer industry and more. 

NJTFC: We’re so hyped to have Ghost Hawk as our official beer partner! Tell me where you’re located and when and how you and your partners got started in the beer industry? 

Tom: We’re located in Clifton, NJ, across the street from the world-famous Rutt’s Hutt hotdog joint. I’m new to the beer industry, but a lifetime entrepreneur. Our brewmaster Chris Sheehan is a grizzled veteran, who has been brewing for close to 30 years and has 9 medals from the Great American Beer Festival (GABF). We’re fortunate to have such a talented brewer (and in my opinion a chef) on our team. 

NJTFC: How did you come up with the name, Ghost Hawk? 

Tom: The name Ghost Hawk is a tribute to our co-founders Steve Bauer’s brother Danny who passed away in 2016. He had lifelong obsession with hawks, and you can read more about the story behind our name on our website.

NJTFC: I’m sorry to hear that and glad you guys found a way to pay homage to Danny. Can you educate us on brewing beer, what ingredients go into brewing, or does it depend? 

Tom: Interestingly, the recipe for beer is very simple. There are only four ingredients: water, malted grain, hops, and yeast. Of course, there are hundreds of different types of each ingredient and depending on the mix up you can create a plethora of flavors. 

TEAMSTERZ SHOW UP AGAINST MEADOWLANDS FC

SECAUCUS, N.J. — In the early morning rain, the Teamsterz showed up against Meadowlands FC with a 4-0 win on Sunday.

Jordan MacQuarrie, who scored two goals in the first game of the season against Kearny, added two more, including the first of the game. MacQuarrie was dangerous for the Teamsterz all game, opening the field and creating scoring opportunities constantly. With four shots on goal and passing that created more, Coach Logan Kovach said “The data doesn’t lie, Jordan MacQuarrie was hands-down our Man of the Match.”

Two players, Rogger Castillo and Alec Chapoteau, were able to notch their first goals of the season with excellent individual efforts for the other two goals. 

Goalkeeper Jesus Perez earned the first clean sheet of the season, with stellar saves on every Meadowlands shot on goal.

TEAMSTERZ CONTINUE THEIR HOT STREAK

KEARNY, N.J. — The Teamsterz continued their hot streak with a 2-1 win against New Jersey FC Reserves on Saturday.

Dan Barreira, the striker to look for prior to the game, scored for NJFC to set the Teamsterz back 1-0. But, backed by Edwin España’s two goals, one off a penalty kick, the Teamsterz were able to keep their winning streak going. Team collaboration, the biggest improvement since the start of the season according to Coach Logan Kovach, shined in the Teamsterz’ comeback victory. “From the sideline you can hear how confident & encouraging they are in/to one another through their communication, you can see it through their passing/positioning, and you can feel it in the air; the energy they bring to the pitch.” Kovach said.

“Our squad believes in themselves, in each other, & in the team.”

ASK THE COACH: UEFA PRO COACH DENNIS LUKENS CONDUCTS TRIALS

NJTFC Technical Coach Dennis Lukens, a UEFA ProCoach, conducted the 1st soccer trials for the fall 2021 season while Head Coach Javier and Coach Valery evaluated the players. We asked the super star UEFA Pro Coach a few questions, and this is what he had to say!

NJTFC: Tell me a little bit about your professional experience and all about your annual camps here in the USA? We heard you’ve been in Ukraine and Ireland during the pandemic.

DL: I have coached professional soccer as a Head Coach with the Boston Storm of USISL, the Bay Area Seals of USL “A” League and Technical Director for the California Cougars of MLS. I then coached the St. Lucia Olympic Team through 2008 CONCACAF Olympic Qualification Tournament. Afterwards, I served as the Selection Coach for FC Sevastopol from the Ukrainian Premier League, was Head Coach of Kherson Krystal and FC Shipbuilders of Ukraines 2nd division! I run soccer camps each summer in multiple locations focusing on elite players and their development.

NJTFC: Wow, that’s a very impressive CV! How do you know our Prezi, Alex Geraldino

DL: We met a few years ago when I began working on owning a team in the League of Ireland. Alex & Sibrena are my partners on the project.

NJTFC: You’ve spent a good 2 days with Alex & Sibrena Geraldino. I’m sure you’ve watched the Discovery Channel show “I Quit” so, tell us about your experience with them? 

DL: We had a great time together! Alex & Sibrena took great care of me as they were kind enough to invite me to stay in their home. We had a lot of laughs together, in between the work.

NJTFC: How was your 1st experience conducting trials for the club and when will you return to the USA, how can fans follow you on socials?

DL: The tryouts were absolutely great. Young players working hard and giving 100% to make the Teamsterz FC. Many players with great potential showed up. Big respect to Alex and Sibrena for putting their heart, soul and money into the Teamsterz FC. Regarding what’s next for me besides being an offical “Teamsterz” technical director, I likely will be coaching a 2nd division team in Ukraine again soon, so I expect to return 2022 plus, we (Dennis, Alex, Sibrena and partners) are still working on the Irish project. 

You can find Dennis Lukens oon socials @IrishSeasFC on IG and @IrishSeaFC1 on Twitter. We would like to thank all of our coaches for their dedication and the players for putting in that work. Stand ready to strike!
