Adult kickball is a playground game played by people with mortgages, and the best team names never let anyone forget it.
The name has to work on a scoresheet and on a shirt your coworkers will wear in public. TeamGear Canada will build your kickball jerseys to order — start your design here.
Adult kickball splits into two crowds, and they want opposite things from a name. Open rec leagues lean hard on the nostalgia: the big red rubber ball, the bunt that nobody can field, getting picked last at recess. That is the first group.
Corporate and team-building leagues are the second, and they are a genuinely different brief — the name goes in a company newsletter, it sits next to a department name, and somebody in HR will read it. The office-humour names below are written to be funny in that context and still safe to print on a shirt with a logo beside it.
