For the most recent dodgeball information, please visit http://1sthanmer.ukscouts.org.uk/dodgeball
I am in the process of organising a dodgeball tournament for the Scouts. The tournament will raise money for Scouts and the British heart Foundation, as well as give the Scouts some extra equipment (3 dodgeballs!).
Each scout will have to form a team of 6 people by getting friends from school or locally. The event will not only serve as a fundraiser, but as a scouting open day to encourage new scouts.
