About THE EVENT

Join us at our annual gala on October 29th at Tribeca Rooftop, a celebration of empowerment and community.

This year we invite you to explore the Power of Play Ball; an elegant evening filled with interactive elements of play to be enjoyed with friends and colleagues. Pair your evening attire with your dressiest sneakers and get ready for a memorable experience.

At PowerPlay NYC, we believe in the transformative power of sports to instill confidence, leadership skills, and a sense of belonging in the girls we serve.

Your support will directly contribute to funding our programs, ensuring that more girls have access to the life-changing benefits of sports.
