Newark was originally to be one of three cities to represent New Jersey in the Can-Am League along with Little Falls, home of the [[New Jersey Jackals]], and Augusta, home of the [[Sussex Skyhawks]]. The Skyhawks, however, elected to stop operating after the 2010 season.

In 2010, the Newark Bears were purchased by New Jersey radiologist Dr. Douglas Spiel and his partner, Danielle Dronet.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nj.com/sports/njsports/2011/07/newark_bears_ownership_changes.html|title=Newark Bears ownership changes hands once again|date=July 7, 2011}}</ref>
