So...I have been trying for a while to get a lovely game of kickball on and have been unsuccessful...However, it starts NOW! Maybe late September/early October...anyone interested in playing a friendly game of kickball on say, Sunday afternoons, let's do it. At first, my thoughts are get together and play. If enough sowallers show, organize teams and play on a regular schedule. I welcome any and all ideas...Mine basically include KEG, SOWALLERS and FUNN!

GAME ON!

If this doesn't make you wanna play, you got issues.

KICKBALL RULES​

We'll try these...see how it goes...


The More The Merrier. Everyone (adults) is Welcome.
Except Bullies And Crybabies. We have enough of those already.

She Who Holds The Clipboard Holds the Power.
Right or wrong, She has the final word in all disputes. No arguing. It's a bad vibe for someone who isn't getting paid to be your girlfriend.

It's Only A Game. Chill Out...
The First Team To Score 10 Runs Wins The Game.
All bases must be touched by the runner to count.

Four Fouls Is An Out.
No bunting: a kick must travel more than half the distance to the pitcher or it is foul. 3 outs is an inning.

A Caught Pop-up Is An Out, Even If It Is Foul.
However, if a foul ball is caught and dropped, it stays foul. No runners advance.

Tagging Up Is Allowed After A Fair Catch.
If a fair pop-up is caught, the kicker is OUT but any base runners can run like hell to the next base IF they wait on base until the kick is caught OR run back and touch that base, then advance. All ties go to the runner.
You Are Out If You Come In Contact With The Ball.

A FORCE OUT is when the ball beats a runner to a base and there is another runner on the base behind. Otherwise, RUNNERS MUST BE TAGGED OUT. In UKA, a runner can run outside of the baseline and all the way to Loisaida to not get tagged OUT. If they can make it to a base without being touched by the ball, they're safe. However, no matter how a runner comes into contact with the ball, even an accidental ricochet off the backstop, they're OUT if touched.

A Runner Can Advance Only ONE Base On An Overthrow.
And - as in life - Stealing is just plain wrong.

Never EVER Throw The Ball At Anyone's Head.
See Rule #3. Beaned players advance a base. Beaners suffer scorn.
