It a church term for a level of organization of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Each congregation is a "Ward" or "Branch". Approximately 7-10 of those are organizationally (and geographically) grouped together in "Stakes" which are in turn grouped into "Areas".
Often each congregation/ward has a team that plays in a Stake-wide league. Sometimes, multiple Stakes have a tourney between the best from each Stake.
