The schoolyard game becomes a genuine team sport: fast, tactical, accessible and far more technical than it first appears.
The aim is to eliminate opposing players by hitting them with a ball, catching a throw or forcing an opponent out of bounds. The game combines accuracy, timing, dodging, communication and strategy.
The rules are simple enough to start quickly. The more you play, the more tactical depth you discover.
A short sequence from the Swiss championship shows the real pace of the sport straight away. The excerpt begins after the first 5 seconds to jump directly into the action.
A direct hit on an opponent eliminates that player.
A successful catch eliminates the thrower and allows one eliminated teammate to return.
Movement, changes of pace and reading the throw are essential.
Dodgeball is a team sport: communication, coordinated throws and creating opportunities make the difference.
A few simple markers are enough to understand why dodgeball feels fast, readable and intense from the very first rallies.
