Assault? In dodge ball? Isn’t that the point of dodge ball?

The game of dodgeball has been under the evil eye for several decades now. Yes it’s fun but several states have banned it because the rubber balls do hurt badly if hit more so in the face and kids, well boys do sometimes go out of their way to hit very hard usually on the girls but not always.

When I was in school this was the case and after I left the county made them quit using rubber balls and only Nerf ones. Other states like I said just outlawed the game.

Personally I’m not against dodgeball just use the Nerf balls.

LOL...when I was in my twenties, I was playing dodgeball in a gym and I was the last one in and had people winging the ball at me from all sides, on one I dropped and rolled, ending up face down with my nose against the floor.

As I lifted my face to look in front from the direction the ball was expected to come from, the ball was just a few feet from my face whizzing directly at me at high speed.

I instinctively ducked my head and split my chin open on the wooden floor...:(

To this day, my beard is salt and pepper, but that one area grows in completely white!

You shouldn’t believe the media at face value.

It wasn’t a sanctioned game of dodge ball, the black kid deliberately targeted the white kid with a dodge ball who has a medical condition. There is a video online.
