Chris Noble

Growing up in Syosset, Long Island, Chris Noble was exposed to two very important things at an early age - Soccer and New York City. He was even fortunate enough as a child to attend Pele's NY Cosmos farewell game against his former Brazilian squad, Santos, at Giants Stadium in 1977. The image of Pele holding up both the U.S. and Brazilian flags while being paraded around the field is something that is forever etched into his memory.

Though only playing until his teens, he was forever a fan of the game and all sports. After studying Foreign Affairs at the University of Virginia, Chris then moved to Oregon where he worked as a broadcast producer for Wieden + Kennedy, creating award winning commercial and documentary work for such clients as Nike, ESPN and Brand Jordan.

Upon returning to NYC in 2001 Chris then became a partner in the Brooklyn based multi-media art collective known as the Combustive Motor Corporation, expanding his production knowledge into music, art, entertainment and publications.

In 2006, after completing a series of NYC Soccer Web Films for Nike's World Cup campaign, Chris realized something was missing from the city he loves - a soccer championship. Working independently as Noble Projects, it is now Chris's mission to create a World Class event that the City of New York, and even Pele, would be proud of.

Spencer Dormitzer

First and foremost, Spencer Dormitzer is a frustrated Soccer player. Born and raised in Massachusetts, a car accident took away the opportunity to play the sport he loved at a higher level. He turned to Art as his passion, studying at The School Of The Art Institute of Chicago in the late 80's. Spencer went on to a promising career as a painter, garnering critical acclaim with several group and solo shows in Chicago and around the world.

This journey as an artist brought him to New York in the Late 90's, where he continued to work in the field as a studio manager for a prominent New York abstract painter. Soccer has never left Spencer's blood, as he finds himself immersed in the sport in all his available time. In the past seven years, Spencer has managed and captained the Cosmopolitan club the NY Fury, also co-founding Appletown FC, a women's team in the NY Metropolitan Women's Soccer League. He contributes to several soccer-centric radio shows with commentary and opinions regarding soccer in this country and around the world. He is also hoping to publish a book in the future based on his experiences. Any other free time Spencer has is spent on a soccer field, somewhere in New York, much to his beautiful wife Kendall’s chagrin.
