For The Kickballers!

There was something very specific I forgot to mention on my "Different Strokes For Different Folks" posting. Its actually a pretty important concept that deserves to be explained. Which is this, Sun City Kickball is for the kickballers.

I think Sun City Kickball is very unique when compared to other sports or recreational leagues. More often than not, most other leagues are controlled by a small contingency of players & coaches. This group makes decisions that are usually only beneficial to them and leaves the rest of the league's participants to fend for themselves. The whole reason SCK was founded was to create a place that was NOT EXCLUSIVE but instead more inclusive for its participants.

Some of you know the detailed story of how Sun City Kickball came to be. If you do, then you know my commitment to making sure that SCK is always an enjoyable place for all its participants. You can never make everyone happy all the time but it doesn't mean we can't try. I can't tell you how many people hesitate when they want to ask my something, comment on something, make a suggestion, or even want to complain about something. I'm 100% sincere when I say, "Don't be shy. Tell me whats going on". Because if I don't know whats going on, I can't help. I will always find time to field a phone call, answer an email, and heck, I even do text message conversations. Just this week, I had lunch with a captain to discuss some suggestions that they had been working on. The key is if you have something to say, good or bad, we need to know. That is the only way to make sure the league is functioning properly and people are enjoying themselves.

The other thing to remember is, we have a 7 member board that is in charge of adopting policy and procedure for the league. I can assure you that these 7 members share my enthusiasm and my common goal of being true to the league, its players & fans. My hope is that between all the players, coaches, fans, and board members, we are all able to make Sun City Kickball an awesome place to play and an admired local El Paso organization.
