Frequently Asked Questions

What is kickball?
Kickball is like the lovechild of baseball and soccer with dodgeball as the fun stepparent! You kick a big red bouncy ball, run bases, and can get people out by throwing the ball at them (gently, below the neck). It's designed for fun with zero athletic ability required!
I've never played team sports. Can I join?
Absolutely! Most of our players had never played team sports before. The ball is big and bouncy - impossible to miss! We celebrate effort over excellence. Come to a GAG Day to try it risk-free!
How much does it cost?
Season registration is $90, covering all games, your jersey, tournament entry, and endless good vibes. Financial hardship support is available - we never want cost to be a barrier. GAG Days are completely free!
Is this really LGBTQIA+ inclusive?
100% yes! We're a community first, sporting group second. Zero tolerance for discrimination. We actively create safe, affirming spaces for all LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies. Many players found their chosen family through kickball. You belong here! 🏳️‍🌈
