Where is the American Kickball Hall Of Fame in Corpus Christi Texas located?

As of my last update, there is no official American Kickball Hall of Fame located in Corpus Christi, Texas, or anywhere else. While kickball is a popular recreational activity and there may be local organizations or leagues that celebrate the sport, there isn't a nationally recognized hall of fame specifically dedicated to kickball. If such an institution has been established since my last update, I wouldn't have information on its location. You might want to search online or check with local sports organizations in Corpus Christi for any relevant updates.
