VAVi's National Kickball Championship
Frequently Asked Questions:
A. The date for VAVi's next tournament has not been set. Please visit www.govavi.com for the latest information.
A. Anyone can register. With two divisions it doesn't matter if you are good (or think you are) or just want to have some fun and laugh with your friends. Even if you don't have a full team, you can sign up as a free agent or small group and we'll find one for you. A. VAVi's National Kickball Championship is on Saturday, October 4, 2008 from 8:00am to 5:00pm at Liberty Station's NTC Park in Point Loma about 5 miles from downtown San Diego, CA.
A. This is an adult tournament. You must be at least 18 years of age to register. You must be at least 21 years of age to enter the beer garden.
A. There are two divisions. The Kick Ass Division is our most competitive with $4000 in cash prize money for the top two teams (1st place is guaranteed $3000 and 2nd place is guaranteed $1000). The Just for Kicks Division is more social with less emphasis on winning and more emphasis on having fun and meeting people. There will be trophies and prizes, but no cash prize money.A. Teams consist of 10 players (6 men and 4 women) in the field and everyone kicks. We recommend 12-15 players per team for substitutions and no shows. Free agents and small groups will have 12-15 players per team.A. NTC has a huge grass park (enough for 8 kickball fields). There is no dirt, it's all grass. True Kickballers can adjust to any playing surface ... can you?A. Yes. The Kick Ass Division will have umpires on every game. The Just for Kicks Division will have umpires on every single elimination game and most likely on every double elimination game. If you would like to be an umpire, please contact John at john@govavi.com or 858-273-3485 x18.A. Not only do you get an entire day of playing the greatest "sport" on the planet, we also have a beer garden sponsored by Miller Lite, DJs from Baja Sound System, a live band featuring Erick Macek, and food from Oggi's pizza. It's a kickball tournament and a kick ass party.A. Beers and Wine are $5, Margaritas are $7, sodas and water are $2. Oggi's lunch packages are $5 which includes 2 slices of pizza and a salad or a sandwich wrap and salad.A. Because of the city wide alcohol ban, drinking alcohol outside the beer garden is illegal. It's not worth risking a ticket from the SDPD. No need to bring your own booze, you'll have plenty of opportunities to have an adult beverage in the beer garden.A. Although food and beverages will be available, we suggest bringing plenty of water and maybe some snacks ... orange slices are delicious. We will have limited seating and shade available, so bring chairs and tents for shade (if you have them). You'll also need cash for the beer garden and lunch. There are ATM machines within walking distance if you forget.A. Yes, as long as they are rubber cleats. Metal cleats are prohibited and shame on you for thinking about wearing them ... it's kickball.
A. Yes, you may play on multiple teams. However, the game schedule is extremely busy and you may not be able to play all the games for all the teams. We recommend picking one division and one team. You may NOT play on multiple teams in the same division. You may only be on one team roster in each division and only roster members are eligible for cash and non-cash prizes. Basically, no switching teams at the end of the day.
A. Yes, sign up for the Kick Ass Division with $4000 in cash prize money. 1st Place is guaranteed $3000 and 2nd Place is guaranteed $1000. Watch out, this will ruin your amateur status ... you'll be a professional "athlete". The Just for Kicks Division has trophies and prizes, but no cash prize money.A. Visit www.govavi.com to register for the next VAVi Tournament. Don't procrastinate. Sign up today. The last day to register a TEAM online is Thursday, October 2nd at 12:00pm.
