On Wednesday the 20th of June, the Phoenix FM studios were graced with the presence of Dodgeball-ing royalty in the form of Mike Linger: player, coach and now creator of Brentwood’s own Dodgeball League.
Mike taught Rob the basic rules, although he did have to repeat himself as Rob’s attention span isn’t the greatest as you will probably be aware, he explained how Dodgeball has exploded in popularity as a sport after a lot of exposure given to it by Sky Sports and how he still learns new tricks from the 2004 Blockbuster movie “Dodgeball”!!!
Each question was been carefully cut out and linked below for your listening pleasure.
Does Everybody Play By The Same Rules
What Can Be Used As A Dodgeball
Dodgeball: The Sport, The Movie
As Mike mentioned, he has a website Winger Sports Academy and he also provided us with other sources of information through the UK Dodgeball Association and Mike’s own twitter page Mike Linger
A massive thanks to Mike for coming in between training sessions to chat with us about Dodgeball and I look forward to hearing how good Rob is at Dodgeball after next Wednesday’s first session at the Brentwood Centre.
