What we’re about
I'm looking at setting up a kickball group which would meet regularly for games in a fun and inclusive environment.
BUT WHAT IS KICKBALL? Well.. it's basically baseball & softball mashed up - originally developed for kids, but in recent years adopted by adults for social purposes whilst being somewhat active!
Bit about my Kickball experience:
I played Inclusive Rugby for a few years, but after a bad tackling incident that ended with a knee reconstruction, and then an operation on my neck, I was a bit limited when it came to playing any type of team sports. I discovered the Emerald City Kickball group in Sydney where I was living and decided to join. I was a member for a few seasons both as a player and a referee and was a great way to make new friends (and also getting some exercise in) Since I moved back to the UK in 2023, i've found it difficult to find a similar type of social/sports group that has this type of fun dynamic and therefore decided to see if we can bring the joy of Kickball here to London.
It'll open to people of all adult ages, don't need to be super fit, just come along and have fun!
If there's enough interest we can look at creating teams which would play over a season etc; All we would need is a open park and decent weather and a positive mental attitude - and decent weather!
