Well I wrestle in the winter and box the summer season since there is nothing else to do, it’s part of my anger management, the boxing is.

Hi, I would definitely like to know more about how to get a team/league started! Please let me know how I might get more information.
Thanks!

Ki-Aikido, yoga and meditation. But sometimes when I’ve been sitting way too long (into the night :-) I just need to take a walk to get some fresh air first, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to concentrate.

Hey Dan, not sure if you still read this, but I’d like to know how the YMCA has it set up… I am currently trying to get my dodge ball “crew” I guess is what you’d call them over to the YMCA. Someone I am speaking to over there is thrilled about bringing it to his location… We just need to make sure it takes off successfully. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve

We have a dodgeball group here at Bethel College in Mishawaka, IN. We were national champions at least one year, although this year we didn’t sign up for finals, so obviously we won’t win nationals.
Anyway, I have yet to join up with the fun, though I hope to in the future. Players wear funny get-up and just do their best. It’s cool.

Wow, dodge ball… I hit your site because I’m reading your book… I haven’t thought about dodge ball in decades (I’m not familiar with the movie.). We used to play dodge ball in school in Swampscott, MA. What a flash back.
I’m in VA now, and I miss Halloween up there :)

Speaking of high school games, here in the UK we used to ‘play’ a game called British Bulldogs – can’t really remember the rules, or even the object of the game but basically it involved two hordes of kids charging headlong into each other! And of course there was always 30-a-side soccer, played with a tennis ball. Maybe we could revive these games in the UK with proper leagues, referees and rules? :)

Holy crap. And I thought that Dodgeball was a made-up game for a really funny film. It’s a *real* game? Wow. Sign me up!

Ah yes, Dodgeball. Who can resist the sight of a guy being hit square in the male-jumblies by a grade-school rubber ball while doing the classic air-split? C’mon, dodge, duck, dive…but not the air-splits.
