    Kickball?

    What do you mean by kickball? Is this the game that is similar to baseball, but the players kick the ball instead of batting it? That's what we call it at my school. We usually only have one game going on at a time, but it sounds like you have more.

    I would handle it this way: If a kid kicks the ball, then he has to sit on the bench for the recess. But, instead of you taking care of the balls, can you give the ball to another kid? Or, if your kickball is the baseball version, you could make the rule that kicking the ball is equivalent to an "out," at which point the kids on that team are going to get very upset with the kicker. That might help to curtail it.
