Activity 2  Dodgeball

Scoring
While there is no real point scoring in dodgeball, the aim of the game is to eliminate players of the opposing team, which can be done in a number of ways. The most obvious way is hitting an opponent with a ball, if a player is hit and the ball is not caught before becoming dead, that player is eliminated. However, if a player throws a ball that is caught by an opponent, the throwing player is eliminated from the game.

Some variations of the game allow for a reinstatement of players if their team catches the ball. This can ensure the game lasts for a longer time-period and provides an incentive for catching the ball, as opposed to just dodging the ball.

A player will eliminate themselves if they run out of the court of play.

Winning the Game
The game is over when all of the players on one team are eliminated, resulting in the other team winning the game. If both teams still have members at the end of an allotted amount of time, the winning team will be the one with most players. If this still results in deadlock, overtime can be played.

  • Rules of Dodgeball
    The number of players, number of balls, size of court and length of game can be determined by the organisers.
    Players must remain within the court at all times, unless collecting dead balls.
  • Players are allowed to leave the court to collect balls but they are not allowed to throw the ball until they are back within the court. If a player leaves the court for any other purpose or they throw a ball from outside the court, they are eliminated.
    The rules regarding headshots can be decided upon personal preference or by order of an official body. Some games will see the throwing player eliminated if an opponent is stuck on the head, some games will see the player struck on the head eliminated.
    Players struck with a ball that is then caught before it becomes dead are eliminated.
    When a player catches a ball, the throwing player will be eliminated.

Variations

Some variations of the game allow for a reinstatement of players if their team catches the ball. This can ensure the game lasts for a longer time-period and provides an incentive for catching the ball, as opposed to just dodging the ball.
