The Albany Half Moons are a concept for a soccer team in Albany, NY that plays at Bleecker Stadium. The team's name derives from the English name for the Dutch ship Halve Maen. The Half Moon is the ship that Henry Hudson sailed on when he ventured into present-day Albany in 1609. The orange and blue color scheme and subdued tulip pattern connect with Albany's Dutch heritage. The left sleeve features Albany's coat of arms. The team has a1970s throwback jersey featuring a retro Addidas logo and an American Bicentennial patch.
