Dodgeball is undeniably fun, competitive and yes it can be a little bit dangerous too. That’s part of the attraction as it’s such a fast-paced and energetic, highly interactive game. Plenty of measures are in place to try and keep the game of dodgeball as safe as possible for all participants and to reduce potential injury. Encouraging fair play by teaming up members of similar athletic ability and stature can help for a start, as well as using a lightweight and malleable ball and only landing balls on a players body and never their head. The important thing is to try and have fun in a safe and friendly, non-aggressive environment.
