General Description
|
Kickball brings a fresh new twist
to the adult recreational sports scene in Edmonton. Kickball... yes, just like you
played in 5th grade, is a game that closes the age and gender gap,
if but a little. This great playground pastime is now back for adults
18 and older to enjoy. Kickball is great for people of all sporting
abilities, from the popular school jock, to the kid who gets picked
last. We encourage rivalries, cheering and general fun. Kickball
combines everything we love about softball with the awesomeness
of Dodgeball, what could be better? After your game, enjoy ESSC
specials at one of our many Sponsor Bars around Edmonton.
|

|
Description |
Recreational |
This league is for those who have
not played kickball since the days of elementary school or those
who have played some kickball in recent years but are not too hardcore.
The goal of the pitcher is to get the ball kicked. Remember, its
Kickball, so just have FUN! |
The above divisions are created based on skill level and not on competitive behaviour. All SSC players are expected to play with a ‘fun-first, winning second’ attitude. The SSC may move your team up or down a division based on seasonal results. |
