Former Indiana Firebirds general manager Joe Hennessy will take over the same position with the Philadelphia Soul, the Arena Football League said in introducing the expansion team owned by Jon Bon Jovi.
Hennessy spent 11 years as the Firebirds general manager, helping build the 1999 ArenaBowl champions.
Tim Farrell has joined the Soul as the director of communications, the same position he held with the Firebirds.
The Soul ownership group includes Bon Jovi, former Eagles quarterback Ron Jaworksi and businessman Craig A. Spencer.
The Soul is the 18th team in the Arena Football League, which also has approved a franchise in Austin, Texas, to play in 2004.
