General Description

Kickball brings a fresh new twist to the adult recreational sports scene in Calgary. Kickball... yes, just like you played in 5th grade, is a game that closes the age and gender gap, if but a little. This great playground pastime is now back for adults 18 and older to enjoy. Kickball is great for people of all sporting abilities, from the popular school jock, to the kid who gets picked last. We encourage rivalries, cheering and general fun. Kickball combines everything we love about softball with the awesomeness of Dodgeball – what could be better? The games are self officiated with the kicking team supplying the umpire. And of course, after your game you can always enjoy SSC specials at one of our many Sponsor Bars around Calgary.

Who Can Play?

Adults aged 18 and older can join any of our Kickball leagues. All Kickball leagues in the SSC are co-ed and self-officiated. For a description of this division's level of skill, please see below. We welcome full teams, small groups (5 or more players but not a full team), friends (2-4 players) and individual registrations. Small groups, friends and individual registrations are combined with other similar registrants to form a team that remains together for the duration of the season. Click here for more info.
