Week 4

Hello again and hope your week is going well!  After 3 weeks we still have 2 undefeated teams, Balls Deep, and Dumbledore's Army!  How exciting.  Will they survive another week and keep the streak alive?  Also, the social games have been a ton of fun and I can't wait to see what's coming up next.

Anyway, this weeks Wacky Rule:

Rabbit in a Hat - Teams must choose the kicking order using a deck of cards. Aces first, 2's last. (Spades(highest), hearts, diamonds, clubs(lowest)).

Or you can draw numbers from a hat and go that way.  Whatever tools you have at your convenience!

This week is an even week so bunting is allowed and normal pitching rules apply.

REMINDER that we are currently playing at the Poinsettia Recreational Center until further notice due to faulty lights at our Hollywood Rec.

Everyone's t-shirts are in so if you haven't gotten them yet please speak to your captains.  Captains if you are missing any please let me know, but they should all be accounted for!

HERE are the Field Standings

And THIS is the Schedule.

Take it home: Dumbledore's Army

REF:
6pm Field 1(closest to Basketball court):  Ball of Duty
6pm Field 2(on schedule it says Grass 1):  Dumbledore's Army

Week 3 - THEME WEEK

Welcome to Week 3 everyone!   This week's wacky rule:

Tee Ball - The kickball is Teed up just behind home plate.  Kicker kicks the ball in place.  Standard foot placement applies.  Catcher and pitcher positions must still be manned.   No bunting!

Normally this week would be pitch to own team but because we are tee'ing up, no need!  Also, if the rule itself didn't already say so, this is an odd week so NO BUNTING! 

This week is our NFL THEME WEEK. What that means?  That means Jersey's, costumes, mascots, cheerleaders, you name it.  If it's NFL related it counts!  Direct quote from our Social Chairs:
"WEEK 3 / THEME WEEK! - NFL. What does NFL mean to you? Wear your favorite NFL jersey, dress as an umpire, a cheerleader - the choice is yours. Take a team photo in all your NFL glory and post the picture to the league Facebook group by 5PM on Monday with the hashtags #NFL and #yourteamname. All photos will be voted on by WAKA staff and winners will be announced shortly after."

All participating teams will get 1 social point.  Top 2 teams will get 3 bonus points voted on by our unbiased staff!  So be creative, photoshop if you must.

Also, the rest of the t-shirts arrived, so you guys will all be beautiful and uniformed at the same time for Week 4!

Thanks and see you Sunday!

Week 2

Welcome to another season of kickball!  We started Week 1 without a hitch, and now that we're getting into our groove, all sorts of craziness can commence!  Let's start with this weeks Wacky Rule, as voted by your prestigious Captains:

Gambling - If the runner makes it safely to the base they possess the option to “gamble” by playing RPS (one round) against the fielder at the respective base. If the runner wins, they may advance to the next base. If the runner loses, they are out. The runner may choose to “gamble” until a score is recorded or the runner is out.

This week will be normal pitching and bunting IS allowed.  Two-pitch rule stands.

Remember that next week will be our NFL theme week.  Start preparing now.  That means Jersey's, costumes, mascots, cheerleaders, you name it.  If it's NFL related it counts!  Until then, let's enjoy a normal week with our T-shirts which HAVE ARRIVED and are accounted for!  As I announced earlier there are only a few people who won't get those shirts (due to late registration), but your shirts will be in by Week 3!

Thanks again for your patience regarding the bar games.  There are 3 leagues up there at the same time (soon to be 2 once flag football playoffs are over) and it might be difficult to get your revenge matches in, but Courtney and Jasmine are doing their best to coordinate the dodgeball and Kickball games.  They're doing a great job and VOLUNTEERING so please show them some love.

Otherwise, keep on keeping on.  Have a great rest of the week and See you for Sunday Funday!

WEEK 1 SOCIAL

JASMINE MCATEE: 

Welcome to Celebrity, y'all! I along with Courtney Cohen will be your social chairs for this season. If you have any questions about the social schedule, which will be released for the season next week with the standings chart, feel free to ask us at any time. Challenges start after both the 6pm & 7pm games have completed, so about 8:30pm.

Here are your social challenges for Week 1:

WEEK 1 / SOCIAL CHALLENGE - 21 Beer Pong. Four people from each team will participate - 2 guys, 2 girls. Two people are the shooters, two people are the retrievers. There will be 21 cups stacked at the end of a table. Shooters will be provided two ping pong balls. If a ball lands in a cup, the retriever must drink the cup before the shooter can shoot again. Two re-racks allowed. Players can only switch sides during a re-rack. Timer does not stop for re-racks. You have **3 minutes** to knock out as many cups as possible. Two balls in one cup only counts for one cup. Team to knock out all 21 cups the quickest - or, in the event that no team knocks out all 21, team with the fewest cups remaining at the end of 3 minutes - wins. First place receives 4 points, 2nd place gets 3 points, 3rd place gets 2 points, and all other participating teams get 1 point. Teams are responsible for supplying their own beer for this challenge.

REVENGE MATCH - This challenge is all season long. The losing team from your field match up challenges the winner to a revenge match of their choice. It can be flip cup, beer pong, 21, Civil War, doesn't matter. Winner of revenge match gets 1 social point.

See you this Sunday!

FALL SCHEDULE IS UP!

It's still not too late to sign up and pad your teams with bodies for those days when friends are on vacation and such so keep on registering as it will be closed after week 1 THIS SUNDAY!

Congratulations to SITH HAPPENS for reaching team status second. You guys have earned 2 pitchers of beer for your first week of indulgence!

T-shirts are being ordered now so Week 1 you'll have to wear your team colors out of your own wardrobe. Sorry for the inconvenience but because the season came so quickly many of us were teamed last minute. Teams are as follows: Sith Happens (Charcoal Grey), Pitches Be Crazy (Purple), Dumbledore's Army (White), Balls Deep (Cardinal Red), Ball of Duty (Black), and The PINK Bambino (Pink).

Jasmine McAtee and Courtney Cohen will be announcing this week's social challenge soon so you can prepare yourselves for the skill and talent needed to succeed and build your way to becoming this seasons SOCIAL CHAMPIONS! In my opinion, the crown of Celebrity!

Cheers and see you SUNDAY!!! WOOOOO!
