Urban Kickball League of Milwaukee: Keeping the youth busy all summer

July 11, 2019 by Ashley Brooks, Urban Kickball League Leave a Comment

The Urban Kickball League of Milwaukee has been meeting it’s mission of keeping the community busy all summer for the past two years. From coaching just one team to growing a league with over 20 teams, ages 18 to over 50, founder James Harris and his staff of 11 has set out to bring mentors and youth together through a childhood games, Kickball.

Playing Sundays, Thursdays, and Fridays, with practices throughout the week, it’s now considered by some to be a real sport. The league is a breath of fresh air, it’s growing daily and allows you to forget about the stresses of real life for a whole day.

I love UKL!
