The Empire Rugby Conference is a rugby union organization that governs men's and women's rugby clubs in New York State, Northern New Jersey, and Connecticut. Also known as the Empire Geographical Union (Empire GU), it was established in 2012 following the merger of the Northeast, New York State Rugby Conference, and Metropolitan New York RFU.
The organization manages competitions for both senior and collegiate teams. Some of the teams that have competed in the conference include Binghamton, Stony Brook, and Kings Point. Many of the collegiate teams previously in the Empire Rugby Conference have since moved to the Liberty Rugby Conference.
