Dodgeball Qualifiers - 240 rounds played!

“If you can dodge a spanner…you can dodge a ball!”

Thankfully there weren’t too many spanners to dodge today during the annual dodgeball qualifiers, though there were plenty of balls flying around. Once again, we welcomed a staggering 40 teams to Mark Hall Academy Sports Centre throughout the day, with events split over the mid-morning and afternoon. With some expert advice on the rules, demonstrated perfectly, the children were grouped and ready to play.

Both events ran really well, considering the difficulties when umpiring – it really is one of the toughest events to officiate as everything happens so fast and all at the same time. Having said this, there were very few disputes, with the vast majority of the children and staff demonstrating great integrity and honesty throughout.

As always, thanks were given to the amazing staff members who helped organise and officiate, alongside Mr Stacey, Mrs Pardoe and Mr Hammond. We are able to expand our events due to fantastic collaboration and dedication of all the people involved – great job all!

The 8 teams who qualified from today’s event, will meet in the finals on Friday 10thNovember at Mark Hall Academy.
