Different ways to play dodgeball
Dodgeball is a widely-played, team sport played with two teams. Players must throw balls and hit opponents on the opposite team, while avoiding being hit themselves.
Each team must try to eliminate every member from the opposite team. A player is eliminiated when they are hit with a thrown ball or when a ball that they throw is caught by someone on the other team.
