There are many adults in Seattle who get excited about kicking a rubber ball around a baseball field in the springtime.  My friend Noelle turned me onto kickball a few years ago, but, unfortunately, I couldn't commit to a whole season of games.  For those of you who do not have commitment issues like me, get some friends together and create a kickball team and join the league. 

For those of you who are like me and can't commit to more than a day, you have the option for a single day of kickball:  The Red Rubber Showdown on July 12.  It's an all day event, but the event managers to make sure there is a proper "bar break" so people can get much needed bar food and beer to fuel up.  There are two divisions you can enter:

Midcore Division
"Hey, did we win or lose just now? Where's that bar shuttle at... there it is! woohoo."


Hardcore Division
"We're going to win this thing, yo! Where's the trophy at? That thing is gonna be OURS! Oh yeah, we're going to the bar, too..."

Better start practicing now, because kickball is more difficult than you think.
