The New Jersey Ironmen was an American indoor soccer team. They originally joined the Major Indoor Soccer League for the 2007–08 season.

The Ironmen won their first game against the Orlando Sharks, 7–4, on October 27, 2007. The team won its first home, 8–6, game on December 1, 2007 against the Detroit Ignition.[2] Former New York Cosmo Pelé acted as honorary captain for the opener.[3] Tab Ramos, who played on the MetroStars from 1996 to 2002, was honorary captain for the second home game. Giovanni Savarese, who is the all-time leading goal scorer for the Metros, was the honorary captain for the fourth home game. The Empire Supporters Club, the main supporters club for Red Bull New York, was present at every Ironmen home game.
