About Us

Michael Jones has been the publisher of Soccer New England magazine ever since he purchased in from founder John O'Keefe in 1998. At various times through the past decade, he has also been the Editor.

Jones is a native of England, who came to the US in 1990. His involvement in soccer began in 1993, when he was the one of the founders of the Cape Cod Crusdaers of the USL. He served as President and General Manager of the team until May of 1998, during which time he also helped launch the Boston Renegades, turning them into one of the league's most successful teams.

More recently he has coached youth teams and served as Director of Coaching on the board Sandwich Soccer Club. He still plays twice a week (though he's getting too old for all that nonsense), and spends way too much time for his wife's liking keeping up with EPL and MLS action on Fox Soccer Channel.

East Bridgewater, MA native Nick Williams has been the Managing Editor of Soccer New England since May of 2007, when he graduated magna cum laude from Boston University's College of Communication. At BU, he served as the Sports Editor of the Daily Free Press, the independent student newspaper at the university.

During the controversy surrounding the school's new arena swearing policy last year, Nick appeared in The Boston Globe, Sports Illustrated and on FOX News. In addition to numerous collegiate events, he has covered the Little League World Series and worked locally writing stories for The Patriot Ledger and Brockton Enterprise.
