Kickball

History of Kickball
Kickball originally called “Kick Baseball”, was invented around 1917 by Nicholas C. Seuss; Supervisor of Cincinnati Park Playgrounds in Cincinnati, Ohio.  Around 1920-1921 “Kick Ball” was used by physical education teachers in Public Schools to teach young boys and girls the basics of baseball.

Since its creation kickball has continued to grow in popularity and in the late 1990’s began to enter into the adult social sports realm. Spearheaded by a DC start-up Kickball for adults has spread across the country with groups in nearly every major city getting in on the fun!

Golden Rule

First and foremost all NOLA Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We do have officials; however, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. NOLA Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. NOLA Fray will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun.

Teams

NOLA Fray is proud to relieve captains of the burden of paying for full teams. While captains and players are able to prepay for additional players and or full teams, it is not a requirement for participation in our leagues. We welcome individual player payments.

We are also proud to welcome those who do not have a full team (small groups and free agents) to participate in our league.
Our primary mission is to make it easier for people to have fun and get involved with social sports and these policies help accomplish that goal.

Because of these policies, all registrations are on a first come first serve basis and any roster that does not reach our standard size (based on each sport) is eligible to receive free agents and or small group by the league. Rosters made up of primarily free agents and or a collection of small groups may field more players than the standard roster size. This policy is in place to help ensure free agent teams are able to consistently field teams each week.

1. Each Team must consist of a minimum of 16 Players and a maximum of 30 Players.

2. Each Team may have a maximum of 11 players on the field.

A. Teams are expected to field a minimum of 3 men and 3 women in the field while on defense. If a Team is only able to field 2 men/women in the field, that Team may only field a maximum of 6 of the opposite gender.

B. Teams who do not meet the minimum team requirements will be given 15 minutes to assemble the necessary roster. As soon as both teams have the expected minimum, per the eligibility guidelines, the game will start. Failure to meet the team requirement within 15 minutes will result in a forfeit.

That 15 minute grace period is taken out of that game’s playing time and the game is still limited to its original time length.

3. Each Team must have a minimum of 6 men and 6 women on their roster.

4. Teams must designate a Captain and Co-Captain prior to the start of the game. These are the only Team members allowed to argue all calls

A. NO PLAYER, including the Captain and Co-Captain, may verbally abuse or argue in an unsportsmanlike manner to any Referee. Such action is grounds for immediate ejection and possible suspension or expulsion from the Division if the Host or NOLA Fray staff deems it appropriate.

5. Team Captains are required to provide their teams kicking order to the opposing Team upon request. Once a game has started, the lineup cannot be changed except for injury or illness. Eligible Players may be added to the end of the kicking lineup if arriving to the game late.

6. Any use of ineligible players will result in a Team forfeit.

7. If a player kicks out of roster order that player is out.

8. During the regular season, any registered NOLA Fray player for that division may serve as a sub for a team under the minimum team requirement.

9. During the playoffs, teams may not use subs and may only use players on their roster.

10. Playoff Eligibility: teams that notch 2 or more forfeits during the regular season will not be eligible for the playoffs.

C. If a ball is thrown at a Baserunner and contacts that runner while not on base and deflects into foul territory, the runner is out and the ball is live. All other Baserunners may attempt to advance as many bases as they choose.

Dead Ball Plays

1. If a Baserunner intentionally touches the ball, the runner is out, the play is dead, and any other Baserunners must return to the base they were on at the beginning of the play.

2. If a fair ball becomes trapped in any object, or a Fielder faces an impediment in getting to the ball, the runner shall be awarded a ground-rule double, and all other Baserunners may advance 2 bases beyond the base they began the play on.

5. In order to advance on caught fly ball, Baserunners must ‘tag-up’ on their original base at or subsequent to the fielder’s first contact with the ball. Failure to tag-up allows the defense to make an out by either tagging the runner with the ball before he/she returns to their original base or by a fielder in control of the ball touching the original base before the runner returns to it.

A. Failure to tag up is not an automatic out, but must be recognized by the defense and a play made on the runner or original base.

6. If a Baserunner passes another Baserunner, the passing runner is out.

7. If a Baserunner is assisted by any other team member, the runner is out.

8. Once the Pitcher has the ball in the Pitcher’s Circle, all Baserunners must stop at the base they are running toward unless the Pitcher subsequent to receiving the ball attempts to make a play on a runner.

Overthrows

1. An Overthrow is considered any attempt at a base or Baserunner that misses its intended target and goes into foul territory.

A. An Overthrow allows a Baserunner to advance up to 1 base beyond the base they were running toward when the ball traveled into foul territory.

B. If the defense attempts to make a play on the Baserunner while advancing after an overthrow, all Baserunners may attempt to advance as many bases as they choose. It is up to the Head Referee’s discretion as to what constitutes the defense ‘making a play’ on the runner.

C. If a ball is thrown at a Baserunner and contacts that runner while not on base and deflects into foul territory, the runner is out and the ball is live. All other Baserunners may attempt to advance as many bases as they choose.

Dead Ball Plays

1. If a Baserunner intentionally touches the ball, the runner is out, the play is dead, and any other Baserunners must return to the base they were on at the beginning of the play.

2. If a fair ball becomes trapped in any object, or a Fielder faces an impediment in getting to the ball, the runner shall be awarded a ground-rule double, and all other Baserunners may advance 2 bases beyond the base they began the play on.

A. In obvious cases, the Head Referee has the discretion to award the Kicker and Baserunners whatever base s/he realistically believed they would have reached had there not been an obstruction.

B. If a ball goes over a permanent fence that is aligned in fair territory on the fly, the kicker shall be awarded an automatic Home Run.

C. Any play where a potentially serious injury occurs, play will be stopped by the Head Referee immediately.

 Fair

1. A legally kicked ball that lands in fair territory or in the Catcher’s Zone in front of the kicker and remains in fair territory until it passes the 1st base or 3rd base cone or completely stops in fair territory.

B. A legally kicked ball that lands in fair territory beyond the 1st base or 3rd base.

C. A legally kicked ball that lands in fair territory or in the Catcher’s Zone, and touches or is touched by a Fielder or Baserunner in fair territory prior to the ball traveling into foul territory.

D. A legally kicked fly ball that is in fair territory when it is touched by a Fielder or Baserunner.

 Fouls

A. Any illegally kicked ball (See KICKING).

B. Any legally kicked ball that lands in foul territory outside the Catcher’s Zone.

C. Any legally kicked ball that travels into foul territory outside the Catcher’s Zone on its own prior to reaching the 1st base or 3rd base cone.

D. Any legally kicked ball that is still inside the Catcher’s Zone when it is touched by a Fielder.

E. Any legally kicked ball that travels into foul territory in the air and the defense is unable to make a play on (i.e. catch in the air).

Sportsmanship

NOLA Fray  Kickball is a sport, just like any other, and at times, people will get heated during competition. This is expected and understood. However, abusive treatment to referees, other players, or spectators will not be tolerated.

A player may be ejected from the game or the league if they show extreme unsportsmanlike conduct and/or douchebaggery.

Special NOLA Fray Addendum for Spring 2018

4.2 TIME LIMITS 4.2.1) Games consist of six (6) innings or sixty (60) minutes from start time, whichever comes first. Note: We will be ignoring Section 4.1 for time limits. 4.2.4) Ties are allowed in regular season games.
4.5 MERCY RULE 4.5.1) If there is a twelve (12) run difference at the end of the 4th inning, or at the end of any full inning thereafter, then this Mercy Rule, which ends the game in the winning teams’ favor, may be invoked by the winning team at that point. The teams are given a choice whether to continue playing or not.
9.1 SUBSTITUTION RULES 9.1.1.2) There are no forfeits during regular season games, so teams may sub to reach the 8 minimum player requirement, but no more than that. 9.1.1.3) The substituted player must play outfield and kick 2nd to last in the kicking lineup. 9.1.1.4) There are no substitutes allowed during playoff games. 10.5 DISCIPLINARY LEVELS 10.4.3.4.3) Can still play with 10 defensive players if a teammate is ejected from the game.

History of Kickball

Kickball, originally called “Kick Baseball”, was invented around 1917 by Nicholas C. Seuss; Supervisor of Cincinnati Park Playgrounds in Cincinnati, Ohio.  Around 1920-1921 “Kick Ball” was used by physical education teachers in Public Schools to teach young boys and girls the basics of baseball.

Since its creation kickball has continued to grow in popularity and in the late 1990’s began to enter into the adult social sports realm. Spearheaded by a DC start-up Kickball for adults has spread across the country with groups in nearly every major city getting in on the fun!

Golden Rule

First and foremost all NOLA Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. NOLA Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. Our staff will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun.

Teams

NOLA Fray is proud to relieve captains of the burden of paying for full teams. While captains and players are able to prepay for additional players and or full teams, it is not a requirement for participation in our leagues. We welcome individual player payments.

We are also proud to welcome those who do not have a full team (small groups and free agents) to participate in our league.

Our primary mission is to make it easier for people to have fun and get involved with social sports and these policies help accomplish that goal.

Because of these policies, all registrations are on a first come first serve basis and any roster that does not reach our standard size (based on each sport) is eligible to receive free agents and or small group by the league. Rosters made up of primarily free agents and or a collection of small groups may field more players than the standard roster size. This policy is in place to help ensure free agent teams are able to consistently field teams each week and avoid forfeits.

1. Each Team must consist of a minimum of 12 Players and a maximum of 20 Players.

2. Each Team may have a maximum of 10 players on the field.

– Teams who do not meet the minimum team requirements will be given 15 minutes to assemble the necessary roster. As soon as both teams have the expected minimum, per the eligibility guidelines, the game will start. Failure to meet the team requirement within 15 minutes will result in a forfeit.

– That 15 minute grace period is taken out of that game’s playing time and the game is still limited to its original time length.

3. Teams must designate a Captain and Co-Captain prior to the start of the season. These are the only Team members allowed to discuss any calls with officials.

4. NO PLAYER, including the Captain and Co-Captain, may verbally abuse or argue in an unsportsmanlike manner to any Referee. Such action is grounds for immediate ejection and possible suspension or expulsion from the Division if the Host or NOLA Fray staff deems it appropriate.

5. Team Captains are required to provide their teams kicking order to the opposing Team upon request. Once a game has started, the lineup cannot be changed except for injury or illness. Eligible Players may be added to the end of the kicking lineup if arriving to the game late.

6. Any use of ineligible players will result in a Team forfeit.

7. If a player kicks out of roster order that player is out.

8. During the regular season, any registered player from that division may serve as a sub for a team under the minimum team requirement.

9. During the playoffs, teams may not use subs and may only use players on their roster.

10. Playoff Eligibility: teams that notch 2 or more forfeits during the regular season will not be eligible for the playoffs

The Field

1. The field will consist of a diamond of equal sides, with bases being placed 60 ft. apart.

2. The pitching strip will be placed in the center of the diamond directly in line with 1st-3rd base and home-2nd base, or 42.42 ft.

3. To prevent collisions, there will be a double base at 1st base with 1 base being in fair territory and 1 base being in foul territory. The base in fair territory is for the fielder and runner already on 1st base. The base in foul territory is for the kicker to run to

4. To further prevent collisions, there will be a double base at home plate with 1 base being in fair territory and 1 base being 5 ft outside, in foul territory. The base in fair territory is for the fielder and the kicker. The base in foul territory is for the runner to touch in order to score a run. Runners touching the home plate in fair territory will be called out.

Kickball teams average 15 players per team. Our rosters are this size because we know everyone has different schedules and may not be able to make it every week. The worst thing for a league is forfeits so we try to avoid those at all costs. During a game there are 10 players in the field for defense and every player present must kick.

First… are you sure you don’t know them or that they aren’t a friend of a friend? Once you’ve checked that, it likely means free agents or another small group has been merged onto your team. When groups do not reach full team size we merge groups and free agents together to fill out rosters.

Since the beginning, NOLA Fray has always been more about meeting people, playing a fun game and socializing afterward at the bar. A few players are naturally more competitive than others but don’t worry, 95% of DC Fray is NOT competitive.

As we have grown we have begun to offer divisions for different skill levels for select sports BUT every league we offer is inherently SOCIAL, in that we are all out there to have a good time and meet new people!

NOLA Fray has a no refund policy. Often our rosters have limited space and last minute cancellations hinder our ability to properly plan and organize the season and our leagues as well as the costs that have already been incurred by the league.

If you are unable to participate after completing the registration process we are able to transfer your registration to a future season!

If you would like to prepay for other players or for an entire team you have the option to do so when registering! Once you are on commish and on the option to “Choose Your Destiny” there will be an option to Prepay for Others. Simply enter the number of additional people you are paying for, create a prepaid code, and your total cost should update next to the box. Provide your created prepaid code to your players to use when they go to register for the season to mark their registration as paid.

Some of our divisions now offer an option to prepay for a full team! When you are creating a team/group you can select to “Prepay for a Team” just under the prepay for others option. The total for payment should be reflected on the right-hand side of the screen. Complete the rest of the registration prompts and proceed to the payment screen. When you pay for a full team you are paying for a team spot in the league and a specific number of roster spots. Your teammates still need to register for the season and apply your prepaid code! If you would like additional players you can add additional roster spots at time of checkout or after the purchase.

If you have a corporate company team or want to bring a very large group of rotating players, please email [email protected] to talk about corporate programs!

Yes, we do offer the option to pay as a team. Since our registration is individually based, the team rate is based on an official roster size times the registration cost. For steps on how to pay for a team during the registration process please check the FAQ above.

Every player must be a registered member on the roster. We do not allow subs/walk-ups/whomever to play with us without being a registered NOLA Fray player. Certain leagues CAN use subs as long as that person is registered in the same division.
