I love when my sons come home and tell me about their dodgeball adventures at school. Oldest one goes I look to get the weak ones out than the girls; than I chirp them when they are out. Tells me only headshots for girls, willy shots for boys. Youngest one tells me he acts hurt, so the other team let's their guard down, so he can pick them off.

Head shots are pleasurable, another is knocking someone's feet out from under them when they're vulnerable.

See, that's what's great about PE dodgeball. Brings out the cruelty in all of us

My strategy was to hang back and let the field clear, but still taking shots when presented. Too easy to get picked off with a crowd.

Did you guys use volley balls, or those utility balls? I liked the slightly deflated utility balls best. Could get a nice grip, and they hurt more.

Another dodgeball is bullying study

Does dodgeball really encourage bullying?
Researchers in Canada say students should not be forced to play the sport in school.
