The Stonewall Alliance’s mission is to create a unified community by offering opportunities for celebration, education, and recreation has a strong foundation through sports programming. Two different sports organizations have joined the Stonewall Alliance to take advantage of shared services offered through the Alliance’s board and committees.
With the support of our community and our sponsors, we hope to expand our program offering beyond sports.
Stonewall Sports Pittsburgh
Stonewall Sports Pittsburgh (SSP) began in 2014 with the sport of kickball and have since added four more sports. Each of these sports are affiliated with the Stonewall Sports national organization headquartered in Washington, DC. SSP leagues are invited to partake in the annual Stonewall National Tournament each summer.
Stonewall Alliance supports each of the five different sports leagues with scheduling, securing the fields and facilitating sponsorship and community partnerships. The commissioner of each sport is represented on the Alliance board.
