Can you throw the ball at a runner in kickball?
Tag outs only result in a player being called out if they are unsafe or off base. There are usually strict rules in kickball that state a player can not tag a base runner out in the head by pegging or throwing the ball at them. However, some kickball leagues allow for pegging below the knees.
Does bocce mean kiss?
Bocce, I found out, actually means "bowls." Baci means "kiss," which explains why it's the term used when a ball nestles up and touches the pallino.
Second question: we had another instance where a kicker kicked the ball up, hit his hand while still in the kicking box, and then the ball was caught on the fly. Out or dead ball?

What do you think of the amount of flags thrown in the NFL this season? Even NFL players as getting sick of it.
The rain was falling in Jacksonville. The wind was gusting. The penalty flags were flying during an unsightly first half. And even Tom Brady decided that he couldn’t keep watching on TV as the Jaguars hosted the Tennessee Titans in a “Thursday Night Football” slop-fest eventually won by Jacksonville, 20-7.
“I’m turning off this game,” the six-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback for the New England Patriots wrote on Twitter during the first half. “I can’t watch these ridiculous penalties anymore".
When Brady’s social-media protest was mentioned on the NFL Network broadcast, analyst Troy Aikman said: “I agree. This is ridiculous.”
The early stages of this NFL season have been, in part, about the officiating, and Brady lodged his complaint as a viewer.

The United States Tennis Association (USTA) has issued safety guidelines for players, which include the following:
Use two cans of balls: one for you when you're serving, one for when your opponent serves (you can mark the balls or use different brands to make clear whose balls are whose).
Open a new can of balls each time you play.
Routinely clean your racquet and water bottle during play.
Pick up balls with your racquet and foot — rather than with your hands — and hit them back to your opponent (although the USTA notes that there's no evidence that tennis ball can transmit COVID-19).

In its safety recommendations, the USA Pickleball Association (USAPA) suggests that players stick with singles. Most of its recommendations are similar to the USTA's tennis guidelines, including washing your hands before entering the court, wiping down your paddles during play, and kicking or picking up the ball with your racquet and foot rather than tossing it to an opponent.

Did you know in doubles badminton? The court size is the same as in singles, but the boundaries for doubles are wider. The serving order is also different, with each team serving and receiving from the same side of the court until a point is scored.
