ABOUT
THE SPORT
Get active and have some fun this season by joining the ESSC’s fastest growing sport, Dodgeball. Despite popular belief, this is not a child’s game anymore! Get ready to dodge, dip, dive, duck and dodge, while meeting other ESSC members in one of our most social sports. The beauty is that anyone can play Dodgeball, and new players and teams pick up the skills and strategy quickly! There are various Dodgeball Tourneys throughout the year where you can sharpen your skills. It’s a 6 on 6 game, with a minimum of two females on the court at all times. We offer Really Recreational, Recreational and Intermediate divisions. All games have a Coordinator present but you are expected to call your own fouls and be responsible for your own play. We encourage you to play with a ‘fun-first’ attitude at our various medium sized school gyms throughout the city. After your game, meet-up with your teammates and other ESSC players while enjoying exclusive specials at one of our many Sponsor Bars around Edmonton. |
