INTRUST Bank Arena Announces Second Annual Dodgeball Tournament

INTRUST Bank Arena is excited to announce the return of DodgeBrawl on Saturday, July 8. This one-day adult dodgeball tournament allows teams to compete in an effort to raise money for a charity of their choice. Each winning team’s selected charity/non-profit receives a financial donation on behalf of the tournament.

DodgeBrawl is a fun, double-elimination dodgeball tournament played on the arena floor of INTRUST Bank Arena. Teams consist of 6 to 10 adults, ages 18 and over, playing for annual bragging rights and the opportunity to win money for a local charity of their choice. Teams will also have the chance to win additional prizes and earn bragging rights through unique contests such as “Best Dressed Team” and “Best Team Name”. A beer garden will be open for players and fans and a live DJ will be providing the day’s entertainment.

“Our staff at INTRUST Bank Arena is very excited to be hosting this fun and unique event for the second summer,” said AJ Boleski, SMG General Manager. “It’s enjoyable to see teams get creative with their team names and costumes and showcase their team spirit for a day of friendly competition. We’re looking forward to this opportunity to once again give back to our local community.”

Early-Bird team registration is now open. Teams can register at the price of $25 per player, with a minimum of six players comprising a team, now through Monday, May 15. Beginning May 16, team registration will increase to $35 per player. DodgeBrawl is a great opportunity for local businesses and organizations in the community to organize a team of employees and compete for a cause with the goal of raising money for a charity of their choice. Fans are encouraged to attend to cheer on their friends and families; admission and on-site parking to attend the event and watch the tournament is free.
