AMERICAN SOCCER CLUB NEW YORK ANNOUNCES BOLLA MARKET AS A PRESENTING SPONSOR
Bolla Market and the Fighting Tomcats will launch the First and Only Fully-Funded Youth Soccer Academy on Long Island
Long Island, NY (May 1st, 2026) – American Soccer Club New York of the National Premier Soccer League and Bolla Market have announced a multi-year partnership, as Bolla Market becomes a presenting sponsor of the Fighting Tomcats.
ASC NY and Bolla Market will be “fueling the future of the Long Island and metropolitan New York soccer family.” The heart of their partnership is a transformative investment in youth development through the launch of the American Soccer Club NY-Bolla Market Soccer Academy, the first fully funded youth soccer academy of its kind on Long Island. “Young Fighting Tomcats” players will benefit from an integrated training experience with first team coaching staff and players, at no cost to participants, affording access to high-level soccer for young players across the region.
“This partnership is a game changer for our club and for our community,” said American Soccer Club NY Managing Partner and General Manager Jim Kilmeade. “Bolla Market shares our vision that soccer is also a platform for opportunity and community connection. Together, we hope to cultivate the next generation of superlative Long Island soccer players, such as Joe Scally (Lake Grove), Chris Armas (Brentwood), and Mike Grella (Glen Cove). Our youth program will also supplement their local club membership, allowing players to continue with their local community-based teams”.
“Bolla Market’s partnership is an opportunity for Bolla to connect with our customers and support the communities we do business in,” said Harry Singh, President and CEO of Bolla Oil Corporation. “Allowing young soccer players the opportunity to develop their skills and provide them a platform to capture their full potential is a unique opportunity for our company.”
ASC NY and Bolla Market plan to connect with the Long Island / New York Metro Area through numerous Bolla locations, providing a local connection to the community and its youth soccer talent. This unprecedented reach amplifies ASC NY’s and Bolla Market’s presence, creating meaningful daily touchpoints with thousands of families, athletes, and fans. Bolla Market’s commitment to ASC NY and its youth soccer program will be meaningfully evident on gameday, with a significant stadium and media presence to enhance ASC NY’s fan experience.
As a presenting sponsor, Bolla Market is the official “Neighborhood Convenience Store” of ASC NY, and fans will see Bolla Market’s logo prominently displayed on all Fighting Tomcats men’s game jerseys and training gear. Bolla Market’s logo will also be displayed on all “Young Fighting Tomcats” apparel, training gear, and merchandise.
Fighting Tomcats jerseys featuring Bolla Market branding will be available for purchase through American Soccer Club New York and Macron, the official apparel kit sponsor of the Fighting Tomcats, via online stores, Bolla Market locations, stadium merchandise stands, and select local soccer specialty retailers.
