Say hi to Trenae Simpson, our 1,000th Facebook fan! Besides being wicked smaht (Boston zing) she is a proud member of Teachers Who Kick It, playing on Sundays in the Constitution Division.
“I signed up for DCKickball because I think it’s a great way to meet people and experience DC. Also, kickball is a fun sport that everyone remembers from their childhood. I’m really happy that I joined!”
I am just super excited about this, and I’m looking forward to seeing how we can make way better use of Facebook (and Twitter and other social services) to really connect our DCKickball community. Between this summer and fall, we’ve had over 4,300 people kicking balls and drinking beer with us in 2009. Pretty nice way to celebrate our 5th year!
Throughout the summer, two different DCKickball divisions donated volunteer time, canned food, clothing and money for two separate DC organizations.
The Adams Morgan Division donated over 25 bags full of usable clothing, several boxes of canned foods and even money for SmartTrip cards to Bread for the City. The mission of Bread for the City is to provide vulnerable residents of Washington, DC, with comprehensive services, including food, clothing, medical care, and legal and social services, in an atmosphere of dignity and respect. The AdMo kickballers also ended up raising and donating $681 to the organization! AWESOME work AdMo Division!
Not to be outdone, the Veterans Division also donated many bags of gently used clothing, canned foods and volunteer time to SOME (So Others May Eat). SOME is an interfaith, community-based organization that exists to help the poor and homeless of our nation’s capital. In the end, Veterans Division also raised and donated a $600 check to SOME. Additionally, the Veterans Division team, the BALLERS, who won a $100 bar tab for contributing the most man-hours, food, clothing, and donations in general, ended up asking us to just donate the $100 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society instead! WOW! These guys have some amazing karma coming their way!

I’ll let you draw your own conclusions, but I think this column was a sneaky little love letter to DCKickball. Sure, it sounds snarky. But underneath it all, I think Amanda Hess secretly longs for the thrill of victory, the glory of flip-cup, and a night with a pirate. But maybe I’m giving her too much credit.
DCKickball would like to invite you and all of your non-kickball friends to the Sept 12th game of DC United vs the Seattle Sounders. This is a soccer game folks (YAWN…..just kidding!), but not just any soccer game! This is DCKickball, so we’re gonna do this RIGHT!
BEFORE the game:
We’re gonna have an all-out FREE tailgate for you, complete with FREE kegs of beer and food. This means flip-cup, beer pong tables, and everyone’s favorite: BEER-IN-HAND Kickball on the DC United practice fields! You thought kickball was fun? Wait till you try to kick, throw and run around the bases all the while holding a beer in your hand! Aaaahh-mazing.
DURING the game:
We have a huge block of seats in the 200-level section, roughly at mid-field, right behind the crazy fan section known as La Barra Brava. If you’ve never been to a DC United game before, these fans are absolutely NUTZ and you’ll get to join them while they chant, sing and dance through the entire game. You’ll probably spend half the time watching them as much as the game itself. Viva la wacky fans!
So whatcha waiting for? Round up your BFFs and come out for a whole day and night of day drinking. Price is $26. Hurry up though, cause this event has limited spots and again, it’s an open invitation to all DCKickball and their non-kickball friends too!
