The Fellowship of Christian Athletes club at Manchester High Is hosting a dodge ball  tournament on Tuesday March 12 at 3 p.m.

 Before we get to the specifics, here’s a little background, courtesy of Wikipedia:

Dodge ball is a game in which players on two teams try to throw large balls at each other while avoiding being hit themselves. In the United States, the game is typically played among children 6-12 in elementary school. However, internationally, the sport has also emerged as a popular middle school, high school and college sport. It is also popular in informal settings and is often played on a playground, in a gym, or in organized recreational leagues.

 Of course, many people know about it because of the crude2004 movie called “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.”
