To all players from the tournament, I wanted to thank all of you for coming out to show your support for our inaugural tournament over the weekend despite the unfriendly weather, it was great to meet everyone. We had just about all of the top teams in the country join us to make for a very competiti...

I didn't get their contact info yet.......... As far as the flip cup teams go its going to be hard to enforce a gender requirement this late in the game. While every team has some girls on their team a lot of them don't have enough for two flip cup teams. Keep in mind that there will be plenty of th...

Does anyone have the contact info for the "Two Finger Fanatics" flip cup team?

For those of you looking for info about the HOTELS contract Adam from GoWava.com adam@gowava.com

I believe rates are $109/night at a hotel across the street from the bar, literally.

field location = anacostia? Yes, Anacostia will be the primary location with backup fields at Gravelly Point. I want to reiterate that many sports organizations regularly use the fields we will be playing on and that although the fields are "across the bridge" they are not in a bad sectio...

I HAVE THE FIELD PERMITS IN HAND AND EVERYTHING IS SET TO GO. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about signing up.

I'll run a ref clinic Saturday morning to go over the rule changes, they are in fact very minor.

CALLING ALL REFS We are looking for both home plate umpires as well as first base refs for the tournament. Home plate umpires will be paid on a per game basis and we are looking for super awesome volunteers to fulfill the first base responsibilities. All umpires and refs will receive admission to th...

Wait, wut? 3 girls? Not 4? That's so sexist of you, Brian. There is a minimum of 3 of each gender on the field. That's another thing. We are used to playing with 4 girls on the field at all times. All of us are used to 4. The rules are designed to make the game more competitive, and with fewer play...

No subs for flippycup?? Hmmm...that changes the entire strategy!! And the "rules" on Flip Cup Guys doesn't mention anything about a co-ed mandatory team. Just double checking on this....so....it can be all guys?? No girls required? That really stinks!!! Lets put it up for a poll or discus...

Per some requests I have updated the rules on our website by adding a tournament section. You can see the update here http://www.thenkl.com/rules.php . To summarize: 1. Teams must field a minimum of 10 players but can have up to 20. 2. Each team must have a minimum of 3 of each gender. 3. Teams must...

Per the post by Angel teams will be briefed on the rules before the tournament starts. Then each team will, in a gentlemanly fashion, ref their own game. There will be officials around to answer questions and make rulings. Does this mean no more Sprite tab? :( I'll pickup your Sprite tab if you do ...

Let me clarify some things about the flip cup tournament that I forgot to mention. Each flip cup team must have 6, and only 6 players. There is no substituting allowed. The more teams there are the more each player gets to drink, win win in my book!. While I understand that kickball teams obviously ...

"driving distance" from my house sounds much more appealing... :-) btw, does flip cup require refs? Obviously, I won't be playing, but I could be talked into reffing flip cup if the good people over at NKL will pick up my Sprite tab. :angel: Your SPRITE tab is on the house, unless some of...

How many total teams do you expect to have come tournament time?

I'd like to have 15-20 teams by tournament time.

Are there any superstar NY teams that will be making the trip down? So far Virginia Beach seems to have the strongest out of town showing.

BTW....any NEW updates on this tournament, like a hotel or fields or anything? Hey Guys, Let me catch everyone up as to where we stand. I have applied for new permits at both Anacostia Park in DC as well as Gravelly Point next to Reagan Airport. The reason for two different sets of fields is so tha...

No soup for you then, or really awesome rules, or really good people, or really ridiculously good flip-cup tournament.

Simply put, yes, it is.

As with most major cities, there are always the good and bad parts of the different neighborhoods. The fields are right next to the river, right across from Nationals Stadium. I've talked with about a half dozen people today who either currently play sports there or have recently played sports there...

Anyone opposed to playing on the nicer Anacostia park fields instead of the mall fields?

From another post (hooray for double posting...lol): I'm sure that you obviously looked into this, but March 28/29 is when the annual Cherry Blossom Soccer Tournament is held. It is also held on the JFK fields. http://www.cherryblossomsoccer.org/venue.html This just sounded a little off to me, so I...

I'm sure that you obviously looked into this, but March 28/29 is when the annual Cherry Blossom Soccer Tournament is held. It is also held on the JFK fields. http://www.cherryblossomsoccer.org/venue.html This just sounded a little off to me, so I wanted to double check everything. Good point. I jus...

Is there also a maximum number of players? Also, is there a max # of teams? The JFK fields may not hold a mid-to-large tourney, so would I be right to assume any spill-over would be played on the Mall? Teams will be capped at 20 players. If we need more than 6 fields the spill over will be on the m...

Festa wrote:Are the roster rules enforced for this tournament. "minimum of 16 Players and a maximum of 20 Players." or is the minimum just 10?

Great question, we expect each team to have a minimum of 11 players in case someone gets hurt.

I'm guessing Champions league rules?

Need you really ask? But for those others, I will clarify that on our website.

As of now......

Most accurate kick
Longest kick
Most accurate throw
Longest throw
Fastest time around the bases
Hardest pitch
Fastest double-play

If you want to only play flip cup you can, but its the same price to play kickball and flip cup. Just makes sense........ Is it possible for individuals to register and then you find them a team? I'd consider it, but I'm sure all these lovely fellow kickballers could definitely use some female tale...

Sounds cool.. but too soon (for my team). However I can put together a flip-cup team. 8) You can find 10-13 other people for a team. They don't even have to travel. Call 'Da_MAULER...
