March Political Madness 2026

Join us for a chance to cheer on your favorite political leaders! There will be games, contests, giveaways and refreshments.

If you are looking for access to New York’s political leaders and hoping to learn about what they do outside of politics or are looking to show off your basketball skills, we are offering a great opportunity to get it plus prizes for our winners.

A portion of the proceeds are going to a charity that focuses on changing the lives of youth all over the world.
