1. How is DCKickball organized?

DCKickball is a league. The league is split into multiple divisions, which play their games at a particular field and on certain day(s) of the week. Each division is then made up of 8-16 teams and is run by a Board, which is comprised of players from that division.

2. Whoa, what’s this Board thing?

The Board is comprised of players in the division. The Board is responsible for both handling some of the day-to-day operations of the Division (such as scheduling games) and deciding how to spend the Division’s social budget. Typically a Board will consist of a President, Vice-President, Social Coordinator, Equipment/Referee Coordinator, and Communications. The Board in essence represents the players of that division, and is the driving force behind most of the social functions. If you’d like to be on the Board of your Division, simply contact us and let us know how you’d like to help.

3. How does the social budget work?

For every player that signs-up for a Division, a significant portion of the registration fee (around $20) goes directly towards that Division’s social budget. So, for a Division of 400 people, that’s $8000. This budget is spent by the Board to subsidize everything from flip-cup tournaments to the various parties that are thrown.

4. Who’s the sponsor bar going to be?

Each Division is hosted by a different bar, which can vary season-to-season. Please check the Division’s webpage for more up-to-date information.

5. Is this a serious league?

God, I hope not. Maybe about drinking. The focus of DCKickball, from the beginning, is about meeting people, having fun, and not taking things too seriously. But it’s pretty much up to everyone involved to contribute to this attitude. If you encounter anyone who isn’t into this, please tell them to chill-out. It’s just kickball, people.

6. How often do we play? What about rainouts?

Teams play once a week (not counting holidays). Once the teams are all registered, each Division will create a schedule that will be published on their website. In the event of rainouts, an attempt will be made to re-schedule.

7. Why should I play in this league?

DCKickball is all about providing the most value that it can to players, particularly the players who volunteer to run their divisions. We will always strive to provide the best experience possible. $20 of your registration fee goes directly towards funding your Divison’s budget, which is primarily used to throw parties and organize charitable fundraisers.

8. Where will the parties be? Who will be organizing them?

At a minimum there will be a pre-season, mid-season, and post-season party. These parties will be organized by the Board of each Division, which will be made up of players in the league who choose to volunteer. The parties are funded by the Division’s social budget.
