Kickball rule question!

Is it "legal" to get a runner out by throwing the ball at them?

Absolutely... Actually someone came into the store wearing a professional kickball league shirt 2 weeks ago. Found that amusing. Anyway, if there's a pro kickball league, that also means there's a league rulebook somewhere. My guess is that THAT might have thrown out the "out by throw" rule in favor of more baseball like rules. I'll try to see if I can dig up a link to a rulebook and post it here.

WAKA- world adult kickball association has a rulebook, but I did not feel like downloading a .pdf file just to find out the answer. Make due with the wiki.

There was a hilarious episode of the Boondocks a couple weeks ago that was a kickball episode.
