HOW KICKBALL IS ORGANISED
In the ten launch cities, every kickball league Out x Out documents is run by a multi-sport organisation such as Stonewall Sports, OutLoud Sports or Big Apple Recreational Sports.
There is no national governing body for LGBTQ+ kickball. Seasons are short and social. Registration windows, fees and whether a league is open-division or has women’s or trans-and-non-binary divisions are on each league’s registration page.
