We all know there is something about this sport and the way we play it that is so infectious...after this past nationals our entire team as changed their profile pictures to pictures of them playing dodgeball, they brag to their friends, and they take pride in it. I wouldn't be surprised at all if other teams have or have had the same reaction.
So, with that in mind, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in possibly starting a new league that is not the NDL, because the NDL is a joke. Of course this would be so people who love this game don't have to be mortified when they graduate.
If anyone is interested please contact me through here.

I have talked to many people about this and I am seriously interested in starting a new league for anyone who wants to play.

then I say lets do it...I know some people who run the USTA (united states tennis association). I can get some tips from them in order to get us started. I know Jazzy is interested too. All we need is a little ambition and dedication and this should be an obtainable goal.

I also think that we have enough alumni now that we could start forming teams through them. These teams obviously don't have to consist of all former NCDA players so it could grow quickly.

i'm in start it. I also have some time left before I graduate, but its a good idea,
First up, any alumni can journey to participate in any of DePaul's many hat tournaments. Cough first one is May 1st cough
If there's enough interest, we can even have side games of specific teams. But i thinks it is important to just play some dodgeball

Throw my name in to THAT hat!... well both to be exact. I'd be up for joining a league after college and I'll have to look in to that hat tournament but I'm interested.

I would definitely be interested. Rather have games with rubber balls than having to play in NADA (foam ball+volleyball court+6v6) tournaments.
