Dodgeball, who'd have thought it to be an internationally contested sport?

[@mr.hakimi07]

I’m from Malaysia, but didn’t even know that my country have a doudgeball national team until I watched this video 😂 btw thanks for the video.

If there has to be a minimum of 2 it really takes the wind out of “wow, finally a sport both genders can play” instead its “oh, i guess they have to handicap themselves instead of allowing the best to compete, be they male or female.”

[@vlrginizer927]

Headshots being illegal is one of the worst rule in this game

[@Seadragon77]

I remember playing dodgeball in my high school gym class. That was fun times..

[@brownsupahero]

I only recognize the ADAA rules for dodgeball. Remember dodgeball is a game of violence, exclusion and degradation. Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge.

[@jpbreeze44]

What a coincidence, I was wondering if there was a professional Dodgeball league and I watched some highlights, weren't aware of the rules either. Now I do :)

[@matthewlo7868]

Ah yes.. The sport that is the bane of nerds everywhere...

[@planetx1595]

I learnt to play Dodgeball from Patches O'Houlihan, "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball"

[@covenantwarrior3840]

Will you do the rules of Buzkashi? It is the national sport of Afghanistan and there no rule videos on KZbin. You have a great channel by the way.👍

[@majapahitnationalist9813]

Tbh i don’t know there are rules in dodgeball, in highschool i just “throw the ball and don’t get hit”

[@weedwhacker287]

"up to teams of 15"

[@SuperBuildsInMC]

Dang I didn't know this was like a genuine competivie sport with associations and stuff, I just thought it was a game we all played in school.

[@hiphaestis]

Great explanation Aligns mostly with the rules I played by in 1st grade back in 1956 in Chicago! Except the rules about stalling. I remember being the only player left on my side, and I ran around collecting 'ammo' before moving up to attack. That took more than 5 or 10 seconds and no one called stalling. Also, think that if a player blocked a ball and the blocking ball got knocked out of their hands, it still counted as a block, but, you know, this was 66 years ago. I enjoyed the sport. No violence, just early lessons on resourcefulness and coping with being prey or predator.

In Poland when I was in school we had position called "mother" that is one player that stand on the back of opponents playfield and can catch the ball and throw it into opponents (and that means that you allways must know what is going behind your back), but mother can't be outed until all of his teammates are out. When all of his teammates he goes to his team playfield and he play alone as a normal player. If morher catch the ball, one of teammate is revised, and mother goes back to her place, but if she is out, team lose game.

[@lachlanmckenzie8208]

Missed out my favourite rule. You can jump over the neutral line and throw the ball before landing, as long as you hit a player your allowed to stay in and have to run back to your own half haha

[@adriancamacho4766]

I always sucked at throwing the ball but somehow good at not getting hit by the ball. It is a fun game, though!

[@brokenplay5222]

I was waiting for this video! 👍

[@simonmacomber7466]

This is nothing like the dodgeball I played in school. The balls being made of foam so they don't hurt is just one of the differences I remember. They were made of rubber, hard rubber, and they really hurt when they hit you, especially when you were hit in the face. Hitting someone it the face gave the team that threw the ball more points. Especially if you drew blood.

that was a very elaborate video. thanks!!
