RKL History is Black History!

Our 3rd LA season kicked off with a slight twist in our first ever Black History Month Classic! An opening tournament that saw two new franchises (Supreme Team & ICY Brrrgade) join the west coast, bringing the LA league to 8 total teams! However, the title game still saw some very familiar faces with KWA facing off against Mandarin Mafia 💪🏾 KWA pulled out the 3-2 win for an unprecedented 3rd straight LA preseason tournament cup! 🏆

We’re grateful to all the fans that pulled up to cheer and especially those that brought canned goods to donate to @hollywoodfoodco . If you haven’t already heard, @rkl.frontoffice collected over 335lbs of goods!The day truly encompassed community, joy, and play 🥹

Thank you @adidasus for powering the day, our additional sponsors (tagged), and the players for bringing their best! We’re beyond grateful for your support and look forward to continuing a fantastic Los Angeles season!

See you March 7 for Week 2!

The moment you’ve all been waiting for! Join us Sat, May 16 at 11 am for our annual epic slate featuring the RKL All Star & Community Showcase, first ever Home Run Derby, and the biggest game of the year - the 2026 RKL LA Championship Game powered by @adidasus!

The close of RKL LA’s historic third season features a can’t miss clash between No. 1 seed Mandarin Mafia and No. 2 KWA. This is KWA’s second championship game appearance in three seasons and they enter the final boasting one of the best defensive seasons in RKL history, surrendering just 7 runs in 6 games. This year’s BHM Classic winners aim to become the first team to take home both the silver and gold trophies in the same season. Defending champs Mandarin Mafia are also playing in their second RKL LA Final, also allowing just 7 runs this year (5 games), and look to become the first squad in RKL history to successfully repeat as league champs and cement the “Mob” as arguably the best RKL club ever after winning the ‘25 National Championship in Atlanta.

The two undefeated sides met earlier this season in Week 4, finishing in a 1-1 draw that was filled with tension from the first pitch. Fans hope to see more numbers on the board in this rematch but don’t bank on it with these veteran defenses.

Other noteworthy news below!
- New RKL merch will be available for purchase!!
- Music, drinks, food, friends, and product giveaways!!

It all goes down at Veterans Memorial Park on the main field. Remember, You Ain’t Gotta Kick it, 2 Kick It!

🚨 HISTORY IN THE MAKING 🚨
For the first time ever, TurfWars Kickball is bringing elite kickball talent to Manhattan, New York 🗽
We’re excited to host a tournament in the heart of NYC—joined by none other than the Recess Kickball League.
This one’s about to be special.
#turfwarskickball #kickball #espn #viral #funoutdoors

Still buzzing. Over 3 days, Atlanta gave us everything: 600+ people across the weekend (300+ on Saturday alone), local orgs pulling up deep, DJs, vendors, and the city’s energy at every stop. We’re beyond grateful.

Thank you to everyone who flew in and to @mandarin_mafia_rkl and @juicecrew.rkl for participating in our inaugural national championship game. Congrats to the Mafia for taking the championship belt back to LA.

@adidasus helped us elevate the moment with jerseys and sneakers for the community. All Star Weekend was a milestone — and a preview of what’s next. Recess Kickball League is only getting bigger. 🏆
