IT’S PLAYOFF WEEK! The brackets are in pdf form on the Capital Conference main page.
Sixteen teams will be whittled down to eight teams this week. Saturday morning, the remaining eight will be whittled down to four. Then those final four teams will play their hearts out in pursuit of the The Peoples Cup and at least a full year of bragging rights.
The playoffs can be crazy, and we’re not just talking about upsets. We’re talking about the schedule itself. As we proceed through the playoffs, some teams might not be playing on their “normal” night. Some Wednesday teams might be playing on Thursday and vice versa. So please check the schedule closely.
Also, games will start at 10 am on Saturday. If you make it to the second round, please be there on time. We are starting at 10 am to ensure we have fields and to take advantage of the somewhat cooler weather earlier in the day.
Also keep in mind that forfeits are frowned upon in the playoffs. Yes, a few players might be coming down with a case of kickball fatigue. But the playoffs are the remedy for that. It doesn’t get more fun or more thrilling than playoff kickball on the Mall!
If, however, you’re pretty sure your team is going to have to forfeit a playoff game, give the opposing team ample notice. (No one wants to get punked by showing up and then not playing.)
AND please note that all teams still must provide side umpires on the day they play. If you play a late game, please provide an early ump; and vice versa.
PLAYOFF SCHEDULE 2008!!!!
A big kickball thank you to Marc England, Captain of Your Mom’s Team for putting together the final expanded standings and playoff schedule for us.
Times are based on the higher seeded teams getting the late games on the days they play on. Two teams are switching days next week. Also, the higher seeded team gets to pick home or away. Away teams kick first.
On Saturday, June 28th we are going to have a 10AM start time if your team advances that far.

FINAL – THE PEOPLES CUP GAME
Hello Capital Conference kickballers!
I’m sad to announce that we’ve been forced to change our mid-season party location. This was nothing that the board did, or even had any say in, and are all upset about the outcome. That being said I know the mid-season party will still be a great time!
We are now going to Union Pub (www.unionpubdc.com). The party will still be on May 10th from 8:30 til closing. Cost will remain $10 for players and $20 for guests which gets you all the Miller Lite and rail drinks you can throw down.
Union Pub will also be offering the following food specials (not to be added to the DCK tab):
$5 wings, $5 nachos, $5 BBQ chicken quesadillas
Of course there will be flip cup. We’ll have it set up outside but may have to move indoors at some point in the evening.
Questions, concerns, etc, bring em!
Hope to see you all there.
Will Femur go undefeated? Will anyone score on Your Mom’s Team? Will the Sloppy Seconds ever get the credit they deserve for a write-up in a kickball newsletter? All these questions… AND MORE… will be answered in this week’s Capital Division’s Everybody Scores!
The first edition of Capital’s That Was The Week That Was is now online. Check it out here.
