Words of wisdom from Dodgeball legend Patches O'Houlihan. When it comes to fiercely competitive activities for a stag do, dodgeball leads the pack. Forget climbing in the Peak District, you're on a stag, man! This calls for something way more violent and degrading. Enter dodgeball, the meanest team sport in Sheffield. Split into teams and target the weaklings on each side in a tournament that requires balls of steel.
This is a real tournament-style affair with a court or pitch, plus hosts who are fully trained in dodgeball. They'll get you all fired up and bring on the banter. Get up to speed on the rules of the game - all three of 'em - and then grunt, roar and shout your way to victory as you pick off your targets by basically attacking them with the ball. Simple.
As this is a dodgeball stag do, there will be plenty of opportunities to get the groom. At least two of the games will require you, as his 'mates' to gang up on him. Nice!
Which team will dodge to victory and who will be buying the beers when you hit Sheffield's famous West Street later on?
In a nutshell:
