Okay, I'm having major PE flashbacks here. Dodgeball was definitely not my favorite sport as a child, but Dodgeball, the movie definitely sparked my interest in the sport as an adult.
I just found out that Crunch Fitness Gyms offer Dodgeball 101 classes.
Dodgeball is back folks! You get a great cardio workout from all that running around, ducking, and throwing balls. Playing this fast-paced game as an adult is much more fun, since now you have more throwing and aiming skills, not to mention upper body strength and speed. I always end up laughing my ass off, so it's a great way to relieve stress. Plus, since you are playing a game you forget that you are working out.
You're interested now, aren't you? To find a Crunch Fitness Gym near you, check out this map of gym locations.
Fit's Tips: If you're even more into it, you can also join a local Dodgeball team or league. Check around in your area to see where they're offered (try the YMCA), so your team can start practicing for the 2007 National Dodgeball Championship.

dodge ball brings back so many fun memories! I can see why it's a great workout. Whipping the
ball at people at speeds over 30 MPH... running and dodging from the ball as fast as you can before being pelted in the back...
2We don't have dodgeball in my school! We play lots of captain's ball though, with monthly inter-class tournaments
3I loved playing Dodge Ball in elementary school! I will have to find a class in my area!
thanks fit
4They won't let elementary kids play dodgeball anymore because they're afraid of singling out kids. This is the same pansy-like behavior that allows mercy rules in teamsports.
5and that allows people like sanjaya and the hundreds of toher people who can't do stuff well do it anyway...because everyone tells them it doesn't matter that they can't do it right/well/with talen...what matters is that you want it and you have fun...whatev. there are winners and losers. i chose to be a winner

Im in a league and I love it!! It's so much fun esp with all adults, cause you all have lots of fun pretending to be kids again. Im not even good at it but I dont care, the competition is so friendly and it's just so much fun! "Dodgeball" the movie is quoted often during matches and stuff too. lol.
7this is a little dif than dodgeball, but just to let everyone know, there is a kickball league in DC. One of my friends is in it and they have a blast.

I'd imagine! Of course you'd get a good workout... You run like crazy trying to avoid the balls being hurled your way! haha
9reeveske, that sounds like a lot of fun! I used to love dodge ball in school
10I can't believe they are taking db out of the schools. Playing DB in grade school is one of my fondest memories.
