WHY PLAY DODGEBALL?

First off - dodgeball is fun. It's a fast paced sport that players of differing abilities can all play together. 

It's a simple game to pick up and play and to quickly master the basics. BUT it is also a tactical game where communication, decision making, and teamwork become crucial to success!
 

Our wee club is also a really socialable bunch and we regualrly have socials out and about in Edinburgh.
You can play a game of dodgeball to a level of intensity that matches your fitness. Some folks can turn it into a full on HIIT workout if they want! Though most prefer a more relaxed pace!

It's also still establishing itself as a sport which means there are folk out there reading this who could sign up and somewhere down the line find themselves representing their country internationally!
 

WHO CAN PLAY?
All our training sessions are currently mixed gender and all ages/abilities/fitness levels welcome are welcome to come and play dodgeball with us. Competitive and social players are equally welcome.
We'd love to be able to field mens/womens/mixed sides in the Scottish league and competitions further afield - but more than happy to host players who just want to play for fun!

  • Our junior sessions cater for 6-10 year olds and 11-16 year olds.

  • Adults of all ages are welcome to our adult training sessions. 


WHAT TO EXPECT?

  • Session start with some stretches, and sometimes wee spot of cardio, to warm up and make sure everyones ready to throw down and get dodgy.

  • Then we will run some skill drills usually focusing on one or more of the key dodgeball skills: Throwing, Catching, Blocking, and of course... DODGING!

  • Then we will play some sets of Dodgeball to put those skills into practice.​

  • Sessions close with our weekly competition: Last GIANT Standing. A friendly elimination competition that runs monthly throughout the year.

Our coaches will explain the rules and how the game works to new players and we will buddy you up with an established player for your first few sessions to show you the ropes!


First session is free! 
When you sign up you'll be added to the FREE group on SPOND.
