The Gathering of the Adirondacks League (GOAL) is a US federation originally based in the Albany, New York area but has spread to encompass all of Upstate New York and beyond. The federation ID is 12427, which is coincidentally the zip code for Elka Park, NY in Greene County, a county within the boundaries covered by the GOAL federation. It was created on 27 August 2004 and currently has around 40 members. Membership is not exclusive however prospective members are encouraged to have some sort of connection to Upstate New York.

Every season they hold the Upstate Cup, an informal competition between members. The champions have been some of the most feared teams in the United States, with the Chernobyl' Atomic Elk winning the first two, CApanache winning the next two and Major Leaguer Dawn of Twilight winning it in season 5 before CApanache recaptured it the following two seasons. With CApanache's departure from Hattrick the Manlius Chubbys are now the dominant team in the Cup, winning the last three.

According to tradition, the winner of the Upstate Cup receives a puppy and although no canines have actually been delivered, unsubstantiated rumors of their consumption still plague the federation.
