Fall Week 3 Newsletter

Happy Thursday everybody!  It looks like we may actually get to play a kickball game this week.  There are storms forecast for the morning but should be over by 10:00 AM.  If for some reason there is rain tonight, I suggest we all get hammered beforehand so that we think there is sunshine all the time like the guy in those Malibu commercials. 

Last week's games will be rescheduled for September 30th.  We will be playing the Week 3 schedule today.
6:30 MTR @ TWS (ATM refs)
7:15 1BT @ SMK (TWS refs)
7:15 ATM @ MTR (TWS refs)
As always, meet up at Aria post-game for the drinking of beer and flipping of cups.  In case anyone needs help finding where we are playing, this map shows the location of the fields and the bar. 

Kickball today, kickball tomorrow*, kickball forever!

*There are not actually any games scheduled for tomorrow, 8/20. 


Fall Week 2 Newsletter

DIST Kickballers,
Tomorrow we will play the Week 2 games on the schedule as published.  Week 1's games will be played on Sept. 2, which is the designated make-up date. 

There is an error on the referee schedule for Week 2, since Suck My Kick obviously can't ref their own game at 6:30.  That's What She Said will cover that game and SMK will take their spot for the early game in Week 6. 

New t-shirts are being printed in the colors you all requested but have not arrived yet.  We will be handing out temporary shirts from our current inventory for this week. 

There is a chance of thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon, but unless I am struck by lightning or kicked out by the park police, I do not plan on leaving.  (If anyone finds me unconscious on the mall, please call 911.)  Assuming everything works out I'll see you at the fields tomorrow.

District Kickballers,

Wouldn't you know?  The sun comes out just as games are about to begin and the fields are perfectly fine?  We need a better way to forecast the weather ...

Summer 2010 Season Announced

We hoped you enjoyed the past season of District Kickball.  Our next season for Thursday night kickball begins mid-July with games kicking-off July 22.  Registration fees are a flat $45 and we are doing away with late fees altogether ... making CHASE Kickball the cheapest kickball league in the city.  Moreover, we're moving to Aria Pizzeria located in the International Trade Center (13th NW & Pennsylvania NW) which is just as close as the Exchange ... except that they have a bigger patio.
