Our Story

Empire State Kickball is a local small business that offers coed, recreational sport leagues for adults (21+). It was started in 2013 by a Capital Region native who wanted to bring the local community together through rec sports.

Empire currently offers adult leagues year-round. Options include Tuesday and Thursday Kickball, outdoor volleyball, indoor volleyball, and indoor cornhole (winter). If you’re looking to do more than just play sports, we also host charity tournaments, volunteer with local organizations, and contribute to fundraisers. Additionally, we like to plan social events (annual cruise pictured above) so you have a chance to make those personal and professional connections off the field too.

Those who join Empire have varying backgrounds and pride themselves on being part of the local community. We have teachers, farmers, attorneys, truck drivers, medical professionals, first responders, civil servants, business owners and everything in between! Here at Empire, our main goal is to operate leagues that are consistent, safe and fun. It is our mission to create and foster an environment that is inclusive for everyone and open to all.

Empire is a great opportunity for those who want to meet new people through rec sports. Anyone with an open mind and willingness to have some good old-fashioned fun is encouraged to join us.
