Dodgeball

Finally got around to watching Dodgeball: A true Underdog Story. What a fantastic film. Obviously it's fab cos it has Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn but there are two other reasons.

A) It's set in Vegas and anyone who knows me knows I love Vegas.
B) Come on. David Hasselhoff, Chuck Norris and The Shat in one movie. You have to be kidding me. I must have died and gone to cheesy actor heaven. All they needed to do was throw in Roger Moore and I would have exploded.

But bet of all it's lead me to realise that (unless I've fallen for a massive practical joke) Dodgeball is actually played in the states. It's a real sport. Check out The National Amateur Dodgeball Association. I was overjoyed to read that the Smurf Squad Jr's claimed victory in the Boy's 4th-6th Grade table of the NADA Indoor National Championships. Any team that can name itself after a group of small blue skinned pixies is OK with me.

I know I for one will be putting July 22 - 23, the date of the NADA Outdoor National Championship in my diary. And you should too!

So come on then, is there a UK Dodgeball association out there and where can you sign up. This could be all the excercise I need.

LET'S DODGEBALL!!!!!
