Brooklyn FC Women take on Fort Lauderdale United this Friday evening, and they’re ready to take a bite out of the opponents when the club celebrates “Sharktober.”

Whether you are a die-hard soccer fan or looking for the perfect family night out, this Friday’s match promises edge-of-your-seat action and a wave of shark-themed fun.

But before you dive into all that’s going on, you might be wondering: What exactly is Sharktober?

Sharktober: An Annual Phenomenon

“Sharktober” refers to the period when large adult sharks return to coastal regions after migrating for thousands of miles. It serves as an annual celebration of the return of these apex predators. Now, Brooklyn FC Women are bringing that same powerful energy to Maimonides Park.

Matchday Activations

To celebrate Sharktober in true Brooklyn style, the club is rolling out a sea of exciting matchday activations for fans of all ages:

Shark Mascot: The official shark mascot from the New York Aquarium will be in the house, snapping selfies with fans and attempting to score the Ceremonial First Goal.
Kids Zone Fun: Got little ones? Head over to the Kids Zone where young fans can dive into a special shark-themed worksheet designed by the NY Aquarium or get a shark painted on their face. Additional Kids Zone activities include tie-dye shirts, cornhole, and bracelet making.
Shark-Tooth Necklace Giveaway: Little ones who arrive early can snag a shark-tooth necklace as they enter the stadium. Put it on to show off your Sharktober spirit for 90 minutes
Fin-tastic Merch: Want to rep Brooklyn FC and Sharktober at the same time? Swing by the team store to grab our exclusive Sharktober Brooklyn FC tee. Quantities are extremely limited.
Shark Storytelling: In the days leading up to the match, our social channels will feature shark-related content, helping fans learn about these important members of the ocean ecosystem.
