Red Rubber Summer Fun

Looks like a bunt

The 2009 Showdown was a blast!

A HUGE thanks to all the teams and players that came out on a perfect Seattle summer Saturday to soak in the sun, ride the crazy party buses, hang out at the sponsor bars, dance in the dugouts, modify their team t-shirts, cheer on their comrades, and play a little kickball, too. The 2009 edition of the Red Rubber Showdown was another monster success, and it was all because of the sportsmanship and enthusiasm of 51 teams and 700+ kickballers.

Congratulations to Softcore champs, B.I.Y.F. and Midcore champs, I Touched All Your Bases... High Five!

What is the Red Rubber Showdown?

What is the Red Rubber Showdown?

The Red Rubber Showdown is your annual ticket back to the halcyon days on the playground...grown-up style.  The tournament is a  full day on the diamond and at the bar with your peeps in honor of the game we all know and love from 3rd grade - Kickball! Coed teams of 15 (10 in the field) converge on Seattle's gem little league complex at Lower Woodland, as well as Greenlake, University Playfield, and Ross Park to soak in the sun. During breaks the bar shuttles will ferry thirsty kickballers to and from the local watering holes for "refreshments." With 2 Divisions to choose from, The Red Rubber Showdown is for everyone: whether you are a team of crafty kickball league veterans, or you haven't played since you were 8!

Defense Wins Championships

Balls in Your Face put their defense on display on Saturday, allowing only 9 runs all day and shutting out 2 opponents. They breezed through the game with the exception of a quick bump in the preliminary round. The teams in the playoffs were no match. In the championship game, they put away We've Got the Runs early for the Softcore championship.

They Touched All the Bases...Repeatedly
This is a header

High Five ran through their division with ease early in the day. Their closest game was a 5 run victory and they also beat up on former champs B.I.G. T.A.B. by 9 runs. They faced a little more resistance in the playoff round though. They barely squeaked by against Drunk and Looking to Score before beating Taul Pall and advancing to the championship. In the championship they faced the better rested Pink Unicorns. The game was a back and forth contest going into the final inning. High Five kept putting runners on base, but the Unicorns kept making outs. With 2 outs and a runner on 3rd, High Five placed a kick in between the pitcher and first baseman that the runner was able to leg out, scoring the winning run from 3rd!
