One of the most exciting and intense sports is coming to Fleetwood. A dodgeball tournament is being organized by the Fleetwood Olympians Club and will be held in the FAHS gym.
The tournament will be held at the end of the school day on Friday, February 18th, 2011, which is a half day. The competition should be a rather thrilling event. Games will start between 12:30 and 1:00. The cost for spectator admission will be just $1.00. Refreshments, pizza, and snacks will also be available for purchase.
The tournament will benefit the high school’s weight room just as the volleyball tournament did several months ago. Physical Education teachers Susan Cammauf and Amy Barnett expect to have raised enough money to make their first purchase after this tournament.
Six players (with a minimum of one girl) will be permitted on each team. The cost for having a team is $5.00 per player. The tournament will be double elimination, and the games should last about seven or eight minutes each. Every team is guaranteed to play at least three games.
Stated Cammauf , “From past experiences, the games go very fast and are over in a blink of an eye.”
Practice rounds will be permitted for all teams so that they can warm up before the real matches. Games are going to be set up using the volleyball court lines as boundaries. Normal Dodgeball rules will apply. If a player steps out-of-bounds, he or she is out. If a player catches a live ball, then he or she retrieves one teammate from the sidelines.
Contact Mrs. Cammauf or Miss Barnett if you have any questions or if would like to know more information about the tournament.
