~ The Beginning ~
After two successful events in honor of a local soccer player (#TeamRickerstrong), Founders Pedro Sanchez, and Joe Brefczynski decided to launch an Arena team in the area. Inspired by the support of the community and the continued inquiries into when they would play again, Formerly, as the Great Lakes Wanderers, we took to the turf in the winter of 2018. The annual charity match has continued ever since as well. In 2020 we formed a new advisory board group and elected to rebrand and relocate the team from our local community in Cedar Springs to the Grand Rapids.
