Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Kickball. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

 * Those entries are factual aspects of the sport. The first video game of it was released, certainly at least the first iOS game which can be demonstrated by linking to the iTunes store (would you be more comfortable if that link was provided and the wording change to reflect that?). It is no less a historical item than claiming "American World War II correspondent Ernie Pyle reported it being played by U.S. soldiers during the Tunisia Campaign, 1942-1943," or stating who invented it. As far as the information about the various Kickball leagues that exist, I completely fail to see how that is not relevant. Someone doing research on Kickball would almost surely be interested in knowing what leagues are available. The baseball wiki page, for instance, also has many references to the leagues that play the sport and also mentions the formation of the leagues in the history section itself. The baseball wiki page also makes references to movies which revolve around the sport to some extent. Should these entries in the baseball page be removed being as they promote the movies? I think you need to better justify how these entries on the kickball page are any different.
