CLUBWAKA specializes in finding teams for individuals. Just sign up as Free Agent and we’ll work to find a spot for you either on an existing team or if we have enough individuals, we’ll make a new team. Many of our long time players started out in CLUBWAKA as Free Agents placed on teams. As a Free Agent, we’ll contact you via email 3-4 days before the league starts with your team information and other details.
CLUBWAKA places, to the best of its ability, individuals on a “first come, first serve” basis. We are not always able to place all individuals. Individuals will be be provided a refund if we are unable to place you on a team. In coed leagues, a guy has a MUCH better chance of finding a team if signing up in a Small Group with a female. Please see below for all registration types.
- Free Agent – I want to join a team by myself
- Small Group – I want to be placed on a team with one or more friends.
- Team – I have a full team and I will either pay the entire fee or have my friends sign up individually.
We do our best to place everyone on a team. In the event that we are unable to place you, we will give you the options of transferring to another league, a CLUBWAKA credit toward a future league or a full refund.
Sign up deadlines are usually 7 days prior to the start date of a league. This may vary due to how quickly the league is filling. Please note that many leagues sell out well in advance so make sure to sign up early.
Full Team
Team captains do not need each person’s information. Each member of the team will register themselves onto the team roster through the activity page or by the email invite sent out by the captain.
Small Group
Small group members will just need the name of the small group and name of person who created the group.
Free Agent
Expect to receive your roster assignment via League Information + Schedule email sent no later than 3 days prior to the start of your league.
Do not assume the games are cancelled if it is raining where you are. We try our best to get games in and may wait until closer to game time to cancel a game. Please remember, sometimes game cancellation is out of our control. We use a number of city fields where the city will close the field due to the weather, even though you may think it is playable. If games are rained out, we will email the league, post inside of the league Facebook groups, and call/text team captains.
You will receive a confirmation email shortly after registering. About 3 days before the start of the league, you will receive a League Information + Schedule email.
If you have any questions in the meantime, you can reach out to your local League & Social Manager for assistance.
Team captains should make sure that they have enough players to field a team each week by emailing the team and taking “roll call.”
Should there be any questions or concerns over the course of the league, it is the team captain’s responsibility to contact CLUBWAKA.
For all of our leagues we promote a sponsor bar. This is a place for all teams to go and get food or drink specials at a great bar close to the facility. Check the description for your league to see your specific sponsor bar and the specials they offer.
No. But we will do our very best and if we can’t, we will issue you a full refund.
Due to the large number of males that sign up, free agent females and small groups with females in them have a better chance of getting placed on a team.
Most of our leagues run between 45 minutes to one hour. We list a window of time that each league runs for, and you will within that time frame. Your game times will rotate each week throughout the season. Games for timed sports (soccer, basketball, football) can be either 20, 22, or 25 minute halves depending on the league/sport.
Your team shirts will be delivered by a CLUBWAKA representative at the first game of the league.
Game Policies
Global Default Policy
A “paper forfeit” is an administrative penalty applied to a team, for failure to provide Refs as assigned or for other transgressions as might be deemed appropriate by League leadership and/or CLUBWAKA.
Remarks
Paper forfeits, unlike game forfeits, do not also count as a Loss, nor do they nullify or replace the result of a given game — they simply add a forfeit to the team’s record, impacting their standings and counting towards the 3+ forfeits that would disqualify a team from tournament play. (See League Tournament Guidelines.)
Global Default Policy
Alcohol is prohibited on the field and anywhere on the premises, per park regulations. All participants and spectators are required to abide by any and all regulations imposed by Facilities at which CLUBWAKA activities are conducted.
Remarks
CLUBWAKA is obliged to enforce regulations imposed by the park or field permit authority, and reserves the right to expel or otherwise discipline any player whose conduct jeopardizes the league’s permits and field agreements.
Global Default Policy
Each League must have at least four (4) teams.
Remarks
Maximum team numbers per league may vary with available field space.
Global Default Policy
Referees must cancel outdoor games if lightning is seen.
Remarks
Putting the game on a 20-minute hold is a valid alternative where storms are known to come and go quickly. Lookin’ at you, Miami.

Global Default Policy
The league will consider protests beyond the Head Referee at its discretion.
Remarks
Be advised that overturning of game results is discouraged in the strongest possible terms, but discussion of controversies is useful for avoiding them in the future.

Remarks
- We know that the best kickball referees are actual kickball players, and the best ones are a part of and love our community
- Our community experience is enhanced when the players and referees know and respect each other
- This is a great way for our players to be involved in another way with our social leagues by interacting and getting to know other members
