The Adams Morgan Board + Team

We are The Board
Why are we here? We’re here to make Kickball more fun for you. We’ve been working hard this last year to bring you the best kickball experience in DC. Summer 2008 was a great season and we know Fall 2008 will be great too. And don’t worry, the season will be over before election night.
We’ve got some exciting things planned, including a fabulous charity event. Since we are always looking to improve on our service to you, we want to hear from you. If you have concerns about unsportsmanlike conduct or you have an idea for a fun event, send one of us an email. The bottom line is that we’re working to keep you kicking, flipping, and having fun.
Now, meet your board:

I don’t have quite the same name issues as Kirsten, but it’s JUSTIN not Jason or Jeffton or Justine. Just Justin. I’ve been playing Kickball for a few seasons now and I’ve reffed enough games to have friends and enemies on every team. I love DCK and what our mission is all about: having fun.
I’m a photographer (especially for all you kickball couples getting engaged), web designer, event planner and consultant. DCK: Do you really live in DC, because I never see you? TEAM: Schrute’s Beet Farm/NDA (Wednesday, Independence Red) |

I hail from good ol’ Buffalo, NY. So yes, I like the snow and no, DC doesn’t have good chicken wings. I’ve long since sold my soul to corporate America, and used the proceeds to buy jumbo slice. I’ve been playing kickball since last fall and am mainly here to have a good time (and win).
DCK: Is your real name Dimple? DCK: Are your parents from India? Ps. J, i hate you for making me do this… TEAM: In the Pink (Wednesday, Frosted Pink) |

Steve joined DC Kickball in the fall of 2007 on the infamous team, “BONER JAMS ‘07 (Adam Morgan Champs Fall ‘07). He promptly infiltrated other teams during that season and when BONER JAMS left for supposedly greener pastures in the Spring of ‘08 he remained in DCK and is now on the Little Lebowski Urban Achievers. GO LLUA!! Favorite pastimes are being an official flipcup announcer, dancing to absolutely everything, and that late night goodness of an Alberto’s slice ‘o pizza with enough garlic to kill a horse.
