Kickball or soccer-ball is a team game that combines elements of baseball and soccer. Players kick a ball to advance around four bases to score runs, similar to softball, with the goal of eliminating the other team's runners to score more runs. It is played with teams alternating between pitching and kicking innings until one team scores more runs than the other to win.
