People at Mitchell school play kickball a lot. Do you want to know how to play kickball? Well, today is your lucky day because I'm going to give out free instructions (oh, and the instructions are in writing). Just thought you should know. Do you know where we play the awesome game of kickball?
We play the kickball game outside at recess in the morning and sometimes, if we have nothing to do, we play it at safe.
Picking Teams
There are two team captains and, yes, the good people get picked first. Then come the rest of the people.
How to Play
There is one team in the outfield and the other team would be on the kicking side. The outfielders spread out and the pitcher pitches the ball and the kicker kicks the ball. Then the outfielders throw the ball to the pitcher. Then the pitcher calls "time" very loudly so everyone can hear. “When the kicking team kicks, it's always fun and energetic," said Grace. Then the pitcher keeps on pitching and pitching and pitching until the outfielders get three outs.
Fouls and Outs
If you kick it and it goes past first base it is called a foul, or if it goes past third base, and you get to kick again. If you get three fouls you have one out and your turn is up. Of you get three outs the outfield team goes to the kicking side and the kicking team goes to the outfield.
Interference
If the person who is kicking kicks it funny and there are people on the sidelines and they hit the people or the people catch the ball that is going to hit them, the kicker has to re-kick and the people on base have to go back to their original base before the outfielders touch the base and get the kicker out.
That's how you play kickball!
