ABOUT THIS LEAGUE
Our No-Sting leagues feature the use of 7-inch rubber balls, a widely popular ball type in the United States. These leagues have gained recognition and participation in local leagues around the country. No-Sting offers a unique playing experience, combining the excitement of dodgeball with reduced impact for a more comfortable and enjoyable game.
Rec No-Sting is a space for all players to have fun, meet people, and make friends in a casual dodgeball setting. We play by the honor system. If you get hit, go out. Court officials will be on site for safety and to ensure the game keeps moving.
Format: Draft League
In our co-ed mixed leagues, players will join a draft combine to review the rules, participate in a skills day and scrimmage with other players in the league. This provides an opportunity for captains to scout players in the league. Captains will come together to participate in a snake draft league and players will be revealed during a team reveal league wide party.
ROSTER
Your team can have up to 12 players on the roster, but matches will be played with 8 players on each side. However, depending on the number of registrations, the player count may be adjusted. This flexibility enables us to cater to varying team sizes based on demand. To promote inclusivity, for every 4 rostered players, we encourage 1 player to identify as part of the She/They/Nonbinary community. Our goal is to ensure an equitable distribution to the best of our ability.
