Ironmen Will Play Next Season


The New Jersey Ironmen will be around next year. With the announcement that the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) has ceased operations, it has inspired speculation about the future of the franchises and sport.

In an email exchange with John Archibald (Director of Communications), we feel secure in saying the Ironmen will be here next year:

Ownership and staff, “are fully committed to the future of our franchise… While there will be some changes regarding the league going forward, you can fully expect the Ironmen to be part of the future of our game.”

We here at LocalFe26.com believe that the folding of MISL may be for the best. A restructuring of the league could be exactly what is needed for the continued growth and survival of the sport. The Baltimore Blast and Philadelphia Kixx have already made statements about their intentions to continue operations.

We will keep you updated, as we continue to follow this story and information becomes available.
