This game ended with alot of bruises and even more laughs!

WEEK 8: Smackdown.


No Photos. Did it really happen? See you all in the playoffs.

WEEK 7: Teamwork.

9 people. Exhausted.



Still showed our refs some love

Thanks DA for reffing ! :D


WEEK 5: Community.

#BallsDeepest + OSWWP + BATB = <3

Our refs from BATB were lovely.

WEEK 4: Synergy.




Kylie J + Running Man Challenge = Perfection

We also love our refs from BOD, but were having too much fun to capture it! :D

Yup.

Hi Edwin.

WEEK 2: Getting it together.

This team goes hard.



And we love our refs. 

BACK AT IT AGAIN

It's great to be back.

Also, it goes without saying, we loved our refs. ;P



[  WEEK 10  ]

Wow. Was that 10 weeks? Without getting too sappy I'll just say that #BallsDeeper had a blast playing with each and every one of you and here's why.... 

Bastards - Not living up to your name, you were all lovely and Ponder's dance moves never disappoint!

Real Ballers Wear Pink - Always a pleasure getting weird with you

$exual Kittens - I'm glad we got our table for that bar game ;) 

Kickers of the Year - #DrinkersoftheYear, we're proud to know you all 

Optikicks Prime - Spencer may be the worst but you're all the best

I Blue Myself - It was a nail biter, but the constant jokes and banter kept it so fun

Ball About That Base - Mixing up teams was the best idea ever! 

ICFMBWIWY - From sliding in onesies to great dance moves, you guys are always a crack up! :D

BOD - Rain, rain go..well I guess you're staying so let's make the most of it! The best way to end the season was being able to act like kids and play in the rain!!

Celebrity is the best league in SoCal for a reason, and this season proved why yet again! From cracking jokes on the sidelines, to dance parties in the outfield we definitely enjoyed every second of this season! See you all at EOS!


Also, shout out to the board for always making sure that this league runs smoothly and is fun for everyone!

[  WEEK 9  ]

I get it, you have jobs and filling out a survey is difficult. But hey, being a master lyricist isn't as easy as it looks. It looks like I'm left with no choice but to grace our #BallsDeeper blog with yet another masterpiece...ey oh nadine, gimme a beat!





Mike Paul is the name that he goes by, but you know him as the guy who always looks fly. Whether he's behind home plate psyching out kickers, or rounding third base you a'int seen no one quicker. Reppin LA from his head to his toes, he makes sure that his city is the one everyone knows. There's not enough bars for me to sum this dude up, so catch him at the bar schooling fools in flip cup!






There's this dude named Marco who hails from FSU, and like Anquan Boldin he's catching flys right over you. He comes to the field laced up and ready to go, and when he's playing beer pong it's lights out - no more show. It's his second season on this weird little team, but he knows it's only the beginning and we're picking up steam!

[  WEEK 8  ]

Again, no one got me their responses on time so here are a few poems about Justin and Josh:

Justin Stines is his name, and kickball is his game. Sometimes he may be scream and shout, but only if you call him out. Next time you see him on the field, if you're turning 1st you better yield. But if you see him out at the bar, he'll be the chillest of them all










His name is Josh Story, and his life is far from boring. This is his first year playing, and hopefully he'll keep staying. He works in music and likes good jams, so and you may not guess it but he gives a dam. So if you come across him in passing, ask him what tracks you should be blasting!

His name is Jae Hahn and he always brings the truth,
When other opponents see him, they always get spooked, 
He's been playing kickball for what feels like forever,
And when he catches a ball, it's light as a feather,
Crashing or outfield it doesn't really matter,
When he's in the field, I wouldn't want to be a batter.
He's a great addition to the ballsdeep team and that's a fact,
Now I'm gonna cut my whack rhyme...DJ spin that track back

FAVORITE DRINK: Capri Sun Mountain Cooler
THE SONG PLAYING ON YOUR PHONE RIGHT NOW: Something sucky from that free U2 album... It's always popping up on shuffle! 
YOUR LAST GOOGLE SEARCH: "how to teach a dog to piss on fake grass" - This led to me actually peeing on it myself... He still doesn't get it!

We don’t have games the next two weeks, so hopefully we can have Dylan organize a proper rave night to fill the void.

Until then,
Katie





 



[   WEEK FOUR   ]

HI!
(Okay if this is in all caps, I have no idea why. I didn't write it in all caps and I don't know how to change it omg I'm going to cry because I'm OCD)
Um anyways,
I don't know about you guys, but despite our loss on Sunday, I think our mothers would be proud of our performance on their honorary day.
We spun 3 times around a yellow bat made for children ages 2 & up, and didn't even puke OR fall.
And like my co-worker told me on Monday morning, "you can never really lose though, when you're #BallsDeep".
Can I get a #tru?

Before we learn about Evan & Dylan this week, sit back, relax, and enjoy this amazing trailer our Captain Kyrstin put together....

I heard you guys kicked some Children's Hospital ass this week. So proud! (5-0....whaaat!)

But what I did see was your hot af neon outfits. You guys were really working it tbh.
REMINDER:
I'm glad I didn't miss out on the most important part of Sunday, the bar. Chris from our Big/Little Team, Ball of Duty was killing it on the 1's & 2's and we were doing the same on the dance floor. If you pretend my Uber driver was my mom, it felt just like a sweaty high school dance (in the best way)!!

[     WEEK ONE     ]


Hi Team,


Katie here, the designated #BALLSDEEP blogger. I knew I had to jump at the opportunity to be team blogger once Kyrstin compared it to being the next Perez Hilton. Initially, I wanted to turn this into a Gossip Girl type blog but I thought that might get a little messy, plus Dan Humphrey always annoyed me.

So anyway, since I don't really know anyone and it seems like most of us are new, I figured we could get to know each other the old fashioned way, through the internet. I'll feature one guy & one girl each week and give you a little Q&A to answer. 

To KICK things off, we'll start with our Queen, Kaptain Kyrstin and her right-hand man, Co-Capt'n Colin.

FAVORITE POSITION? (KICKBALL RELATED, OBVI.): Right Center or in the dug out yelling at people
EXPLAIN THE DEEP MEANING BEHIND OUR NAME, #BALLSDEEP: A handful of team members were all drunk at Rusty Mullet and someone suggested it. After about 5 fireball shots, a few pitchers of beer, and a ton of other bad decisions the name stuck. Sarah also started chanting it at the bar, so it seemed legit!
FAVORITE DRINK: Alcoholic: Ice cold Bud Light Non Alcoholic: Vita Coco Original

Thanks for believing in us, Kyr! 
Until next week....

  1. Hello....There are many benefits that you can get just by visiting a health and fitness center, and it is well worth taking out time from even a busy life to go and do some fitness exercises in a fitness center as it will provide your immune system with a much needed boost and you will also feel more energetic as well. What's more, there is also a wide variety of equipment that you can use at a fitness center that will allow you to do different things including lifting weights, performing aerobics and even swimming, amongst a host of other activities.See more-life and happiness center in Florida
