New Harrisburg supporters group has a vision for soccer in central PA

The Harrisburg City Islanders will have a new supporters group at FNB Field this season. This week, the Capital City Crew announced their presence on Twitter and intention to support soccer in central Pennsylvania.

The City Islanders have featured a few groups of supporters in their history, most notably the Sons of Susquehanna. After the move from Skyline Sports Complex in 2016, the supporter culture in Harrisburg was visibly lacking. Capital City founders Jonathan Baldari, Jamie Garman, and Timothy Ireland seized the opportunity to make a change.

“We started talking about forming this group with each other in January, so just about a month ago,” said Garman in an interview with Brotherly Game.
