Dodgeball

Two teams face off — throw, dodge, and catch your way to victory. Hit opponents to eliminate them, or catch a throw to bring a teammate back.

RULES

  1. 1

    Start on opposite sides of the centerline

  2. 2

    Wait for a whistle to start the game; only then can players run towards the balls in the middle of the court

  3. 3

    A player is eliminated if hit by a thrown ball before it bounces

  4. 4

    Headshots do not count; hits must be from the neck downwards

  5. 5

    Catching a thrown ball eliminates the thrower and allows one eliminated teammate to return on your side

  6. 6

    The team with more players remaining wins the round

SETUP

  • Mark the centerline and side boundaries clearly
  • Place balls along the centerline for a rush at the start
  • Assign referees to monitor eliminations and boundary violations

SCORING

Recalculated pools of 3 (based on Tug of War), each match is 3 rounds; after pool play, matches are 1-round sudden death. Opponent elimination = 1 point. Round win = 1 point. Final placement: 1st = 5, 2nd = 3, 3rd = 2, 4th = 1.
