What is Soccer Baseball?
Soccer baseball, also called Kickball, is a popular game that pulls the best elements from two of the world's most engaging sports- soccer and baseball. The objective of the game, like baseball, is to score more runs than the other teams by crossing the plate after kicking the ball into play.
Kickball, originally called "Kicking Baseball" was claimed to have been invented as early as 1910.
We introduce this game to familiarize you with baseball before the Blue Jays game. Using a game you understand (soccer) and mixing it up with a game you don't (baseball) will help you learn in a fun, engaging way.
