History

The Greenbay Hoppers FC is a nonprofit organization which was formed over 40 years ago. One of the founders, Mr. Londel Benjamin who was President until 2009,along with fathers, grandfathers and uncles of present players organized a football team from the Greenbay community. From those humble beginnings, we have evolved from grassroots football into an integral part of our fans lives and the youths we’ve target around the community to be a part of our club.
