Basics:
Each team will consist of one person designated as the "Medic" wearing a red penny and multiple dodgeball players without pennies.
Teams will be positioned on each half of the turf and separated by a center line. After the count down and "Go" is shouted the game will begin. Players will begin throwing foam dodgeballs at players on the opposite team in the effort to get all players out on one team. Once all players are out and sitting down the game is over and considered won, a new game will begin.
Players who are hit by a dodgeball from a member of the opposite team are considered out and must sit down where they were hit.
The Medic can tag any player sitting down to come back in the game making this an ongoing game.
Once the Medic is hit from a member of the opposite team they are considered out and they must sit down where they were hit.
A player and the Medic who is out may return in the game if they catch a ball from a member of the opposite team.
Players may NOT use their ball to block another ball, if they do, they are considered out and must sit down- If a ball bounces off the wall it is considered dead. If it hits a player and then hits another player, the first player is out and the ball is dead afterwards
Players may cross over the middle line separating each team to retrieve balls from the opposite side. If a player crosses over the line and is hit by a player on the opposite team they must sit out on the other teams side.
A player that crosses the middle line separating each team to retrieve balls from the opposite side, CAN NOT throw a ball at the other team and CAN NOT catch a ball, if struck by a ball, that player must sit where they were hit.
If a player has been hit on the other side of the line when trying to retrieve balls and the other team's medic tags the player who is sitting on the other side, that player can return to the game and run back to the initial team.
Spirit of the game:
In order to maintain the spirit of the game, please follow the rules if you get hit. When you are hit, players must sit with your seat on the ground. No Kneeling is allowed. The game is less enjoyable when players do not accept being out. Take responsibility for your elimination. Good Luck and Have Fun!
