STAUNTON, VA (01/25/2010)(readMedia)-- The monthly edition of Friday Night Dodgeball will take place this Friday Night, January 29th at the Gypsy Hill Park Gymnasium. Doors open at 5:30pm, registration begins at 6pm and games start at 6:30pm. The event is free and youth ages 11-18 are encouraged to dip, dodge, duck , and dive to stay alive in the team portion of the event. The dodgeball teams are organized randomly and fairly so everyone plays an equal amount during the round robin tournament. The team with the best record at the end of the night can call themselves the champions.
The Cage Matches are the most popular part of Friday Night Dodgeball made famous because there are "no boundaries"! Parents are welcome and may become "ballers" to evenly match teams. Sometimes parents become targets, but not to worry, headshots don't count at the Gypsy Hill Park Gym.
The Staunton Recreation Department offers this event as part of their mission to combat childhood obesity by providing opportunities for physical activity. For more information, contact us at www.staunton.va.us > click on recreation. Staunton Parks and Recreation Department: The City's Front Porch.
