Now there is just one more tournament to go: The Circuit Cup Championship. This is the Super Bowl of Kickball. This is by far the most competitive kickball field ever assembled, and teams will have to win eight hard-fought games in one day to win the $ 10,000 grand prize. The winner of The Circuit Cup Championship will truly be the best kickball team in the country.”
