DODGEBALL

This is one of the most popular gymnasium or playground games. It is here described first for an informal game; then in three forms for an athletic contest, the latter as developed by Mr. William A. Stecher; and lastly, for use in the schoolroom. Forms II, III, and IV are for match games.

  1. Dodgeball (informal; players not in teams).
  2. Circle Dodgeball (one team forming a circle, the other team standing within).
  3. Double Dodgeball (two teams in a three-court field).
  4. Progressive Dodgeball (three teams in a three-court field, changing courts at the end of each inning).
  5. Schoolroom Dodgeball.
