Dodgeball tournament at Geneva HS

The game is fondly remembered by almost anyone who ever attended grade school.

The rules are simple: hit opponents with a thrown ball, and don't get hit with a thrown ball.

Now, dodgeball has had a resurgence of popularity and leagues have begun to appear throughout the nation.

At Geneva High School last week, the student government used it as a fundraiser in honor of two teachers battling breast cancer. Participants raised $900 for the American Cancer Society at the “Dodge Breast Cancer” event, and two more single-elimination tournaments are being planned for later in the school year.

Fifteen teams made up of at least six players paying $5 each competed.
