[edit] 2006 season

Previous NY/NJ Revolution logo

The team began play as the New York/New Jersey Revolution in the Great Lakes Indoor Football League's inaugural season. Although the team was based in New York City, they ended up playing an all road schedule that year.

[edit] 2007 season

Starting in 2007, the team played their home games at the Mennen Arena in Morristown, New Jersey. The team got its first win on May 5, 2007 (with a 48-47 victory over the Summit County Rumble in Tallmadge, Ohio).

[edit] 2008 season

The team announced they changed their name to the New Jersey Revolution, and that they have introduced a new logo accordingly.

After losing the season's first four games, the Revs finally got their second win (and first at home), defeating the Chesapeake Tide 49-47 at Mennen Arena.

The team played an east coast schedule for 2009 season but was still considered a CIFL team.[1] They would end up playing only three games, all at home.[2] However, on October 1, 2009, the Revolution announced they had moved to the AIFA for the 2010 season.
