Season 4 Week 20
An incredible 12 first timers joined many of the usual suspects at St Stephen Junior High School tonight to compete for the most coveted prize in all of COC sports, the Dodge Ball Cup, and vie for the right to have their name forever engraved on the infamous, Dodge Ball Wall of Fame! As customary, participants received their team assignment based on the playing card they randomly selected from the deck. Participants then gathered together with their fellow teammates to introduce themselves and come up with a team name. After a few minutes of bonding, team names were submitted and the quest for GOLD began with the first of 20 round robin match ups.
Each team played 10 times to determine their seeding for the playoffs. Green Eggs & Wham captured top spot with an impressive 8-2 record while the Angry Birds and You’re My Boy Blue, followed close behind with 6-4 and 5-5 records respectively. Last but not least, Team Newbie finished the round robin on a high note, capturing their one and only victory on their 10th and final attempt.
In the semi-finals, both series ended quickly as tournament favourite Green Eggs & Wham made short work of Team Newbie while the Angry Birds swept You’re My Boy Blue in 2 straight games to advance to the gold.
In the medal round, Team Newbie gave You’re My Boy Blue a good scare with an unexpected victory in game two but that’s as close as they would come to bronze after suffering a disappointing loss in the tie breaker. In other action, the top seeded teams battled it out for the championship but it was the #2 ranked Angry Birds who dominated the series and captured the gold with two straight victories over Green Eggs and Wham. Congratulations Angry Birds on your well earned Dodge Ball Cup victory tonight!
After the tournament many of us headed over to BP’s where we enjoyed a great time of food and fellowship. Thanks to all who joined me tonight, it was great fun!
