(new!) FAN ATTACK – A Dodgeball Tournament!
We’ve taken the friendly fan competition from the morning’s tug of war, and upped it into a dodgeball tournament for the first time in Otafest 2009! Sign up with your friends, give yourselves an anime-themed team name, and compete against other teams for the title of The Ultimate Fans!
Rules
- 16 Teams will compete in an elimination style tournament. Each team will consists of 4 players.
- Each dodgeball match will last for 5 mins
- For each match, hitting an opponent on the other side from the neck down will score your team 1 point. If the opponent catches your ball, the other team will score 1 point.
- You must stay in the ‘inbounds’ area of the match. If a ball rolls out of bounds, a volunteer will fetch the ball.
- After you are hit or if your ball is caught, you must run around the field once before you can rejoin the game.
- The team with the most points wins.
- Preliminary matches will be played on Saturday; quarter finals, semi finals and finals will be played on Sunday.
- If your team is more than 5 minutes late to your match, you forfeit the match. If your team is missing 1 or 2 players, you are able to substitute them.
- To join, please send an email to Jenny Chan at special-events@otafest.com. In the email, please specify:
