Dodgeball Rules
- A ball is “live” as soon as it’s thrown
- A dodgeball is "dead" when it hits anything besides a player or hits a player without being caught
- You may catch the ball with any part of the body but not with your clothing
- Players get out by hitting them with a live ball or by catching the live ball your opponent throws at you
- A player can be revived if a live ball is caught by one of your team members
