Blue Shirts play a vital role in delivering the Empire experience to students across our three competitions: Empire Chicago: The Windy City Challenge (September), Empire Chicago: The World Championship (November) , and our online competition, Empire Interstellar (October) . Donning our signature Empirion blue, these awesome young people are the “face” of Empire during competition weekends, providing our students with energy and direction.

The schedule for our 2023 Empire Classic competitions can be found here.
