A Lil Sum Sum about Backyard Sports Club…. Backyard Sports Club was created for people who enjoy sports and are looking for new and fun ways to meet people. The founders of this league have been playing organized, adult recreational sports for many years. After playing in the first ever Wiffle Ball Tournament, this past year, we decided Wiffle Ball is the perfect backyard sport for everyone to add into their arsenal of sports. So…we created this league to share this fun experience with all of our friends and all of their friends and their friends, and so on and so forth…………..

The Dos and DONTs •
DO NOT bring alcoholic beverages to the field….or at least be discreet about it!
•
DO clean up after yourselves! Unfortunately, maid service was cut out of Backyard Sports Club’s budget due to the economy.
•
DO be friendly to the Refs: Please do not yell at them…just remember, you’re the one that will look like a jerk if you yell at them.
•
DO NOT be “that guy.” We do not own Uno Chicago Grill or the premises around it; so when you do something stupid, you’re not excluded from any laws just because you are wearing a Backyard Sports Club t-shirt.
•
DO NOT leave a fellow wiffleballer behind; we take care of our own. Don’t let your teammate drink like a champ and drive home. Find the closest decent looking guy/gal, introduce them, and have them go home together.
•
DO NOT be bitter. It’s super important that if you end up having a “sleep over” with a fellow wiffleballer, be cool with them for weeks to follow. We’re a small community, you’re gonna end up seeing them all season! When they drop you off at your car, hug it out, smile…and say “hi” the following week.
•
DO NOT try to guess that persons name!
•
DO go to our sponsor Bar, Uno Chicago Grill. It’s what the cool kids are doing.
•
DO NOT fight! This is a fun league, HAVE FUN! If you fight, fun’s over for you, you’ll be kicked out.
•
DO always wear your Backyard Sports Club shirt. I know laundry once a week may be too much, so it’s cool if you go a couple weeks without washing….unless you’ve got bad B.O. like Robbie Wright!
