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.

Yes, the youth group showed up. A few came over to ask if we were the Church group. Then another asked "Are the bases the beer cans?" Luckily the "youth director" showed up and they played with themselves.
:funn:

Meanwhile, all around the country, recess is being banned for fear of liability....so sad.
It's good to know the adults at least are having some funnnnn!!:clap_1:

Thanks...I really did not think you guys were playing against the youth group from the church. And 14-year-old boys, in a church youth group or not, typically have no problems playing with themselves. I am told that's pretty much universal.
Oh, you meant amongst themselves?
I'm afraid to go out there anyway...y'all might use me for home plate.

I don't think mentioning that is going to help your recruiting efforts!
I ain't skeered.

I haven't played kickball in so long that I don't know whether I suck or not. I'm guessing my game is probably pretty bad. But I will be there Sunday if I can keep my courage up.

the Sowal Church Group! "Adult" Kick Ball League... I've got to come watch. Do not use me for one of the bases, pleeeze. You can use another family member if you need to.Beach FanaticAuthor
Must say, I think it is in the best interest of all if we keep the groups separated. Even the most charming lady can spit out a few choice words during a game of kickball... What can I say, it just happens...next thing I know, I'll be dippin'

children can survive the words (I'll probably bring spidey to watch and he has a big extended Italian family who not only yell a lot, but curse loudly a lot - so nothing new to him). But, I think SJ was right about it being dangerous for kids to be on the field.
ScrltB - are you gonna start dippin' & scratchin'...?

It has to be better than the egg ball we used two weeks ago. Pitching was pretty tough it seemed.

Now that's funny I don't care who you are.

OK, my kickin' peeps...
Please arrive at 4PM this week. Seriously.
Otherwise, we will be playing in the dark.
So do it. For me.
Or, as the announcer at my high school football games would introduce the band, "Let's do it for mama!"

Living at the beach, I have learned if you want people to show up at 4pm, you better tell them 3:45pm, because we don't think about leaving the house until 4pm if you say 4pm. If you want to have the teams selected and be ready to play at 4pm, you should probably say, meet at 3:30pm. Hey, but what do I know? I am just a smart@ss. ;-)

Small crowd today- but they played with exuberance! Kate and I were spectating today, and I was "watching and learning" a few important strategies.
