Week 2 info

Using your blog tabs ^^^ above

  • The schedule is finalized!  
  • The standings are updated as well. 
  • If you have lost or found anything, please email me at danielle@kickball.com so I can add it to the Lost & Found page. I will post pictures of anything I find at the field or bar. 
  • Take a moment to familiarize yourself with your board members. They help to determine rules, plan parties and do their best to make your experience as fun as possible. If you have suggestions, let them know!

RULES:
This week is an EVEN numbered week which means we play with Two Pitch and Bunting IS allowed!  

The additional rule is Dodgeball: If a fielder attempts to peg a runner and the runner catches it - the runner is safe and the fielder who threw it is out for the rest of that inning only. They cannot be replaced, fielders will go down a player. 

What is Two Pitch?
You get two pitches only.  This keeps the game moving quickly and everyone gets to kick more. The first pitch is kind of a freebie.  If you kick it into play it is a LIVE BALL.  If you foul it off or let it go by you (be it ball or strike) you get another pitch. The SECOND pitch counts no matter what.  
Foul = out
Ball = walk 
Strike = out
In play = game on
*Taking walks is not illegal but highly discouraged.  Let's put it into play guys!


Lastly, this week will be a GAME WEEK at the bar! We will have an additional game at the bar for prizes (not points). This will occur weeks 2, 5 and 8. Stay tuned for this week's info!

Week 1 Wacky Rules and Schedule

Check out the schedule for this Sunday.  Please do not worry about the rest of the dates. They are not set in stone and will need some adjusting. Those will be finalized next week. 


Rules: 
  • Pitch to your own team
  • No bunting: Swing for the fences, full extension of the leg, must at LEAST cross the encroachment line
  • Helping Hands:  All outfielders must hold hands before the ball is kicked. A minimum of 5 outfielders is required. If the outfielders break hands before the ball is kicked it will be treated as encroachment.
