1)Try to catch as many balls as you can to get teammates back in.
2)Aim low.
3)If a ball is coming at you that you can't catch, tip it into the air so that it becomes an easy catch for you or your teammate.
4)Have fun!!!

Dodgeball being my second favourite sport (Lacrosse being the first of course) is one of the most faced paced games ever. Always keep your head up, and never look away from the other team. Other than that just put your game face on and get intense.

thats a good point, i wonder is it faster than lax. dont get me wrong though, lax is the best hands down!

keep your head on a swivle and dont focus on one opponent for too long look at all every other second and aim for the legs so they cant catch them.

go for their key player right off the start. we had a tourny at our school and our team won because of how we would just go after their better players off the start. usually the team falls alot faster... and aim for the face or legs

ok here's what i have learned from my extensive dodgeball experience: #1) if the other team are using racial slurs towards you and you're white, juts turn the other cheek and don't say anything back i learned that the hard way. aim low, catch as many as you can but don't try to catch ones that you won't be able to catch. stay on you're toes the whole time. be attentive and make sure you know where all the balls are at all times and just have fun

dodgeball was outlawed at my school after there was a fight between a few kids over someone throwing at the back of another kids head while he was out. one kid had his jaw broken and the parents threatned to sue, so te school said there would be no more db....... it really sucks having half my town being lawyers.

Dodgeball! I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooved dodgeball when I was in middle school.
Just remember that ducking isn't the only way to dodge, you can jump, and slide along the floor.
If there is a dodgeball all-star team, I'd be the captain.

Fake with your head and shoulders going left, then make them go right. thats the time to throw the ball. And when you get intense, get really intense. Im talking about REALLY intense. So intense that if you had to, you'd rip your shirt open hulk style, and throw a ball at your own girlfriend.

has anyone ever seen the competetive dodgeball league on the game show network, its so rediculously lame that its entertaining. guys do like spins on the ground to dodge the ball.
i remember my friend telling me about his school banned dodgeball and so in the school newspaper they had a cartoon with a huge football player and a huge lacrosse player and a little kid with a dodgeball

My PE class just had a huge dodgeball game against the other period 2 class. It was so fun. I would seriously play dodgeball if they had a league for highschoolers in my area. I love how some of the ball's curve when you throw them and make a huge thud when you hit the wall! Makes you feel like a fast thrower. Just pick a few people you don't liek and have fun. Remember to go HEADSHOT (halo voice) when you nail someone on the noggin'.

Or after you hit somebody do what white goldman does after he hits somebody. If you curve, always curve it down. it wont get caught that way

Ran a dodgeball tourney last year at the camp I used to work at, my team was called O'Doyle Rules!.
My tips for recruitment, get at least one baseball catcher, pitcher, and soccer goalie. You'll winf up with two guys who will catch everything thrown at them and one guy with good arm and decent accuracy. (I had two pitchers, both with DIII exp) but we lost to the team that had all catchers who won the tourney. Fun times, though difficult to run it and play at the same time, especially when rules came into play...

and when you see your competition at a bar somewhere, look them in the eye and in a very serious tone "(say your team name) and we will, we will rock you" team members slap knees twice, TSSSS
oh and you also need a monsterous foreign girl with a unibrow
