OFF FOR TWO WEEKS & THEN THEME WEEK!

Just a reminder that there is NO KICKBALL on Sunday, May 24th due to Memorial Day Weekend. There is also no kickball on Sunday, May 31st due to WAKA Summer Camp.  We will resume our week schedule on Sunday, June 7th. 


JUNE 7TH WILL BE THEME WEEK!

The theme is UP, UP & AWAY!  What's that?  Well you can interpret it as you choose.  Think pilots, flight attendants, astronauts, the movie "UP," ballons, bubbles...however you want to take it. Get creative!  

Theme week winners are chosen by a captains' vote.  Captains are not allowed to vote for their own team and only one vote is counted per team.  Both a regular untouched photo and an altered/photoshopped photo are allowed and preferred so that captains may judge both on field presence and creativity. 

See you in a few weeks!

Week 5 Rules

BONUS POINT OPPORTUNITY: Any team with 8 people + present at the mid-season event on Saturday will get 1 point.  Pictures must be submitted.


Week 5 rules: 
Two pitch

No bunting

Backwards Base Running: Runners must run CLOCKWISE around the bases.  3rd is 1st and 1st is 3rd.  If you forget and run the wrong way, you must cross back through home plate to run the correct route.  You cannot cut across the infield.  If you do you will be called out. 

Week 4 Rules

Dizzy Kickball - The ball will be placed on home plate (there will be no pitching). All kickers are required to spin around a bat (with the head on the bat) 3 times before kicking. The bat will be provided. Bunting IS allowed since the dizzy runners will already be at a disadvantage. 4 fouls = an out.  As there is no pitching, there will be no strike outs or walks. 

Good luck!

TIGHT & BRIGHT THEME WEEK WINNERS!

Week 3 is THEME WEEK!

Get excited because this week is THEME WEEK!  The theme is TIGHT & BRIGHT (think neon and spandex).  You are NOT required to wear your WAKA shirt on theme weeks so anything goes!  Just a reminder - theme week is a chance for bonus points.  Teams submit photos to be voted on by captains (who cannot vote for their own team) and the top 3 teams will get 3 points.  All teams who participate will get 1 point.  

This week's rules: 
Two pitch
Bunting IS allowed
Chinese Fire Drill - A maximum 3x per game the opposing team may yell "Chinese Fire Drill" on you and force you to switch up your fielding positions.  All fielders must move to another fielding position within 30 seconds. This can only be called when the ball is not in play.  

DJ Chris Kim will be spinning at Happy Ending this week so come get your dance on!

Week 2 Rules

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!

NO BUNTING
No purposefully short kicks.  Take a swing at the ball with a full extension of your leg.  The ball must cross the encroachment line.  

DODGEBALL
If a fielder attempts 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. The defense goes down one player.
