South Austin. Club Standard. Community Roots.
A football club shaped by the places, players, and standards that built it
Empire Football Group is an organization where football players around Austin can participate in some of the largest recreational leagues in the city, including the Austin Men's Football Association and the Bat City Soccer League, while still feeling connected to a local club with a real identity.
Growing up in South Austin, much of our inaugural team spent years at Onion Creek Fields. From pickup games to after-school kick-arounds, the club is rooted in a deep love for football and a commitment to keeping organized competition accessible.
Originally established as Dolfgang FC, we've evolved into a more structured club that continues to grow with Austin's football community. As of 2025, we are proud to have Imperium FC, Invictus United, and Imperium Sevens competing under the Empire Football Group banner.
The feeling that organized football can still stay local, human, and worth showing up for every week.
Mission
A club model centered on belonging, standards, and staying local as we grow
Empire Football Group exists to unite communities through football. We want players to find a place that is welcoming, organized, and serious about growth without losing the joy that brought them to the game in the first place.
Built from a local player core
The original group came together around South Austin football and the routines that made the sport part of everyday life.
From Dolfgang FC to a more durable club structure
What started as one team evolved into a clearer club identity designed to support multiple squads and longer-term growth.
Multiple teams under one standard
Imperium FC, Invictus United, and Imperium Sevens now carry the banner across league play, events, and community touchpoints.
