[edit] New York Hakoah I
Originally formed by former players from SC Hakoah Wien, including among others Béla Guttmann and Rudolph Nickolsburger, they initially played in the Eastern Soccer League in the fall of 1928. In 1929 they won the U.S. Open Cup. In 1930 they merged with Brooklyn Hakoah of the American Soccer League to become the Hakoah All-Stars.
[edit] New York Hakoah II
The name was revived just prior to the 1956-57 season when a revived Brooklyn Hakoah merged with New York Americans to become the New York Hakoah-Americans. They then became New York Hakoah for the 1962-63 season. They were American Soccer League champions three times in a row between 1957 and 1959.
