You will need to have at least 3 people on each side of the court to play a traditional game of dodgeball. However, you may have as many players per side as you like. Make sure that all of the players are wearing rubber-soled shoes, such as sneakers, so that they do not slip on the court. There should be at least 1 ball available for players to throw, but the game will be even faster paced if you use multiple balls. Place the ball or balls on the center line.  If you are only using 1 ball, place it at the midpoint of the center line. If you are using 2 or more balls, spread them evenly along the center line. This is the maximum amount of time that a match can go on, so set a timer before you play the first game. Each game may only last for a minute or 2, but you may play multiple games to decide the overall winner of the match. Another option is to decide the winner based on the number of games won, such as the first team to win 3 games, or the team that wins the most out of 7 games. When you are ready to start the game, blow a whistle or shout “go!” and then allow the players to run towards the balls. Any player may grab a ball, but teams may want to choose their fastest player to rush for the ball if you are only playing with 1 ball. After the first player gets a ball in their hands, they should wait for 5 seconds before throwing it at someone. This is to ensure that the other players have an adequate chance to get to a ball as well. As the players rush for balls and aim them at the other team, try to dodge the opposing team’s balls. Move around the court to avoid getting hit. You may move to any part of the court to avoid getting hit as long as you stay inside your side of the court.  If you successfully dodge a ball, then you can pick it up and throw it at the other team. If the ball hits you, then you are out and must leave the court. If you catch a ball that someone throws at you, then the person who threw the ball is out. However, you must catch the ball before it hits you. Once you pick up a ball, you have to throw it within 5 seconds. Make sure not to throw the balls too hard or you may hurt someone! Also, only throw balls below the level of the other players’ shoulders to avoid hitting them in the head. If a ball hits someone in the head, then it does not count.  If you wait longer than 5 seconds to throw a ball, then you lose your chance to throw it. Roll the ball gently over to your opponents. Avoid crossing the center line in the court as you approach it to throw a ball. You will be out if you cross the line. Never throw the ball at another player’s head or at a player who is on the ground! The object of the game is to be the team with players left on the court. If your team tags out all of the opposing team’s players first, then your team wins!  Even if you only have one player left on the court and other team has no players left, your team wins the game. If desired, you may switch sides after each game. This is to ensure that no team has an unfair advantage. After 10 minutes of play, the team with the most games won is the winner of the match.
