About Us

World Adult Kickball Association (WAKA)

Featured on media outlets such as CNN and ESPN, and named one of Inc. Magazine’s fastest growing private companies in America in September 2010, WAKA is recognized widely as the nation’s premier kickball organization.

Founded by a group of friends in Washington, D.C. in 1998, WAKA was designed to provide and promote the joy of kickball to those young at heart. The organization now has leagues in over 35 states and thousands of WAKA Kickball players gather each fall in Las Vegas for the World Kickball Championship Weekend, which features the ultra-competitive Founders Cup and The Kickball Games, a more casual tournament.   

WAKA continually works to maintain and enhance the player experience, through rules updates and enhancements in both the athletic and social aspects to support the all-important interaction among players both on and off the field. The organization continues to invest in its ideas, employees and players to guarantee that the leagues runs as smoothly as possible. WAKA also works with dozens of outside organizations and charities, and plans numerous events to help even more people enjoy the unique WAKA Kickball experience.

In early 2011, WAKA launched a franchise program, designed to bring WAKA Kickball to even more communities.
