Los Angeles Dodgers Of Toronto

After months of messaging on MySpace with captain Chris, I finally had the pleasure of playing the L.A. Dodgers of Toronto a few times now, in my local league and at a tournament yesterday.

They made this awesome video on YouTube that has a great soundtrack and is chock full of fantastic videography and selective dodgeball action which showcases this team's spirit and sincere love for the game. This is a real stand up team of friendly folks and great players.



Enjoy the video and watch for Chris's amazing catch at the end!

Dance Party Vietnam's Free Dodgeball Tips

One of my favourite dodgeball team names of all time: Dance Party Vietnam.

The following is stolen from a bulletin I received from them on MySpace. I felt all dodgeball lovers should read this, and I am sure they do too:

Okay, this isn't related to dodgeball at all. But it is. Because I found it on a dodgeball team's MySpace page. This is the funniest video I have ever watched.

Dodgeball on MySpace

So I've been hanging out on MySpace lately (you can view my SixDegreesOfDodgeball MySpace profile here) and wow, there is quite the dodgeball community out there! I've made "friends" with a lot of dodgeball communities in the states, such as Nashville Dodgeball, Arizona Dodgeball, the Los Angeles Dodgeball Society, Tucson Dodgeball, Buffalo Dodgeball, Desoto Dodgeball (I'm from Canada - I don't even know where Desoto is), Iowa Dodgeball, DC Dodgeball and the list goes on. (You can find more dodgeball related MySpace profiles on my MySpace page - first link in this post.)

So if you're looking for dodgeball in your area, check out MySpace and search "dodgeball". There are more dodgeball profiles out there than I imagined!
