Please follow all posted park and city rules. Alcohol is best served at the sponsor bar after the games.
3 ways to get outs:
1) catch flyball
2) force out at a base (like baseball)
3) hit a runner below the neck with the ball
- No metal or screw-in cleats or spikes, please.
- 10 players on the field, everyone bats. Coed format - minimum 4 women in the field.
- 2 strikes for an out. A strike is over the plate, below the knee.
- Each game is 7 innings or 55 minutes, whichever happens first.
- Females are allowed to bunt if the score is within in 9 runs.
-
Run cap = 7 runs per your team's at bat (half-inning). Nine runs can be exceeded when the final play scores multiple runs. There is no run cap during the final inning of a game.No side-arm or overhand pitch delivery permitted.
-
No Walks! 3 balls to a kicker will reset the count... cuz it's Kickball, not Walkball.
-
Pitching rules have been revised to further emphasize getting the ball kicked - not striking people out or making kickers look bad.
-
When the pitcher releases the ball, she/he must keep one foot on the pitching rubber until the ball is kicked.
-
Umpires will not permit curving the ball or excessive speed on pitches.
The main rule is for everyone to remember that you are playing Kickball - it's all about having fun and meeting new people!
