Rancho Cotate Varsity Soccer coach Nick Rogers’ journey to Teqball all started with a simple trip down to Los Angeles with his brother. They watched the World Championships of a little-known sport called Teqball. After watching that, Rogers’ brother said he should start a league in Northern California. That’s exactly what Rogers did, along with Kevin McKeon and others.
The group call themselves the NorCal Teqers and have been playing the sport for less than a year. In fact, Teqball is so new it’s only been in the United States since 2019, but because of the rules and how addicting it is, the popularity of the sport is rising fast.
