The Kulka Group Extends Their Partnership with NY Empire FC for 2025 Spring Season




NY Empire FC is thrilled to announce the extension of its partnership with The Kulka Group for the upcoming 2025 Spring Season. This collaboration builds on the strong foundation established during the Fall Season, when The Kulka Group became one of the club’s premier supporters. The continued partnership highlights the shared values and mutual commitment to the bond NY Empire has with the Long Island Community.


Rob Mannino, Partner and COO of The Kulka Group, brings a unique connection to the club as he also serves as the founding president of NY Empire FC. Introduced to the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) last season, Mannino’s involvement with the team stems from a personal passion for the sport and his family’s deep-rooted love of soccer.

“For my three boys – Brody, Parker, and Nash – soccer is more than just a game; it's a huge part of their lives,” Mannino shared. “As a soccer family, it gives us great pride and pleasure us to be involved with NY Empire FC. I’m proud that Kulka can have a mutually rewarding partnership with the club.”

The Kulka Group, a Long Island-based construction management firm, celebrates its 51st year of operation in 2025. Renowned for managing large-scale projects across diverse sectors, the company’s portfolio includes multifamily apartment complexes, campus redevelopments, industrial properties, storage facilities, medical centers, and educational institutions. With a legacy of delivering high-value projects, The Kulka Group’s involvement in the local soccer scene underscores its commitment to supporting community initiatives that inspire and unite.


Community engagement is at the heart of The Kulka Group’s mission. “We love being part of the community, and NY Empire FC provides a fantastic opportunity to connect with our neighbors through our shared pride in local sports,” Mannino stated. “It’s rewarding to see how our support helps create a vibrant and inspiring environment for athletes and fans alike.”

NY Empire FC’s leadership expressed their enthusiasm for the renewed partnership. “Having The Kulka Group on board has been a game-changer for our organization,” said a club representative. “Rob’s personal connection to the sport and his dedication to both the team and the community have made this collaboration truly special. We’re excited to continue working together to elevate the club and provide a platform for local talent to shine.”

As NY Empire FC prepares for the 2025 Spring Season, the extended partnership with The Kulka Group promises to bring even more opportunities for growth and success, both on and off the field. With shared goals and a passion for community driving the collaboration, the future looks bright for this dynamic pairing.
