Soccer Pros Help Kick Off Gerritsen Beach Soccer Club Grand Re-Opening

Ian Christianson and Marius Obekop from the New York Red Bulls soccer team were on hand to help ‘kick off’ grand re-opening festivities for the newly-renovated All American Soccer Club, 2638 Gerritsen Avenue, and the adjacent Marine Park soccer fields.

In partnership with Gerritsen Beach Cares and HEART 9/11, and with the aid of New York Cares, more than 360 volunteers dedicated themselves to rebuilding the All American Soccer Club, which was heavily damaged during Superstorm Sandy. Christianson and Obekop were only happy to kick the soccer ball around with kids from the neighborhood.
