Jamaican lions helping make Lansdowne roar

This will be the biggest year for a small soccer club in the Bronx.

They’re the Lansdowne Bhoys of the New York/New Jersey Cosmopolitan Soccer League and after 15 years of hard graft and, ultimately, some well-honed development both on and off the pitch, it looks like real success is on the way.

It’s not just that they’re riding high at the top of the biggest amateur league in this neck of the woods, they’re doing it on a budget incomparable to that of their competitors, semi-professional clubs such as the NY Greek Americans, the NY Athletic Club and Clarkstown SC Eagles.
