About Dodgeball
White Goodman owns a gym with a lot of flair. Across the street from Goodman’s gym is another gym owned by Peter Lafleur who is much humbler but a lot less well off. The two owners decide to place a bet which eventually leads them into a dodgeball tournament in order to win $50,000 and save their gyms from demolition.
Why It Belongs
The Sport Connection
One thing about teamwork is that it tends to bring people together who wouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet otherwise. The beauty of teamwork is that no matter who is involved, everyone will come together to accomplish the common goal of victory. And although a sport not as mainstream as football or baseball, dodgeball is played competitively around the world and relies just as much on working as a team as any other sport.
