Dodgeball Game Rules: A Quick Refresher

Understanding the basic Dodgeball game rules is essential for any player looking to join a tournament. Here’s a quick overview of how the game is played at Altitude:

1. Objective:

The main goal is simple: eliminate all players on the opposing team by hitting them with a ball or catching a ball they’ve thrown at you.

2. The Court:

Games are played on our trampoline courts, divided into two halves by a centerline. Teams start on their respective sides.

3. Starting the Game:

The game begins with the balls lined up at the centerline. When the referee blows the whistle, players rush to grab a ball and retreat to their side before attempting to hit opponents.

4. Elimination:

1. A player is out if hit by a ball thrown by the opposing team as long as the ball hasn’t touched the ground.

2. Catching a ball thrown by an opponent eliminates the thrower and revives a teammate from your team.

3. Players can also be out if they step out of bounds or cross the centerline.

   5. Winning the Game:

   The game continues until all players on one team are eliminated or the time limit is reached. The team with players still on the court or the most remaining players at the game's end wins.

   Dodgeball Team Strategies: Tips for Triumph
   

   Success in dodgeball isn’t just about athleticism but the right Dodgeball team strategies. Here are some winning tactics to consider:

   1. Team Coordination:

   Communication and coordination are key. Teams that move as a unit and support each other outperform disorganized groups. Establish roles—decide who focuses on throwing, dodging, or catching—and stick to your plan.

   2. Targeting and Timing:

   Focus on targeting isolated players or the key players on the opposing team. Time your throws to coincide with a teammate’s for maximum confusion and impact. This can create openings and force the other team to make mistakes.

   3. Use the Trampoline to Your Advantage:

   Leverage the unique aspect of Altitude’s trampoline court. Use the bounce to dodge higher and throw from unexpected angles. Practice jumping throws to add unpredictability to your attacks.

   4. Defense First:

   A strong defense can be your best offense. Keep moving to avoid becoming an easy target, and don’t be afraid to drop to the floor or leap out of the way. If you’re adept at catching, position yourself to catch high throws to eliminate key opponents.

   5. Ball Control:

   Managing the balls on the court can make or break your game. Keep as many balls as possible on your side to limit the opposing team’s offensive options. However, don't hold all the balls for too long—this might give the other team a chance to regroup.
