Current winnings: $10,000Now the rules. A match in Extreme Dodgeball is 4 6-minute quarters. For a more in-depth look at the rules, check this out.Bad news first. If you get hit by a ball, someone catches your throw, or you step on or over the center line, you're out. If a ball hits you and a teammate, you're both out. You can use a ball for defense, but if it gets knocked out of your hand by another ball, you're out. If your team hold two balls for more than 5 seconds, the ref can give you a yellow card; keep it moving. Here's the good news: if a ball hits the floor or a wall, it's dead. Head shots don't count. Every time your team catches a ball, one of your out players gets to come back in the game. There is no out-of-bounds, so feel free to walk up and down the walls. There are 7 players on a team, but only 5 can be on the court at one time. When your team gets down to one player, that Last Man Standing will have 30 seconds to try and survive. If he makes it the full 30, one more player comes back in. If a team gets wiped out completely, it will regenerate from the bench, but with only 4 players. A team gets 1 point for a kill, 1 point for a catch, and 1 bonus point for a wipeout.1st Quarter: two small balls are used.
2nd Quarter: two small balls and one big ball are used. A kill with the big ball is worth 2 points.
3rd Quarter: Teams switch sides, two small balls are used.
4th Quarter: Dead Man Walking. Each team must always have a Dead Man Walking out on the court, designated by an orange headband. If the Dead Man is killed, it's 2 points for the other team, and then the headband is passed off to someone else. Two small balls are used.After the 4th quarter, the team with the most points wins the match and $5,000. Extreme Dodgeball season 3 can be seen Tuesdays at 10:00 P.M. with reruns on Thursday at 11:00 P.M. and Sunday at 1:00 A.M. That's it. Have fun playing Extreme Dodgeball.Season TwoExtreme Dodgeball returns with bigger stakes and new players. Eight teams of forty rookie and veteran players will be competing for $25,000 in prize money. The 8 teams are as follows:Classic DivisionCertified Public Assassins: The former champions from season 1, dressed as certified public accountants (that's really what CPA stands for), these guys were the biggest nerds in their schools, but now they're here to dodge red rubber balls like they dodge the IRS.Lineup: Michael "Handsome" Costanza, Mandy "Sunshine" Sommers, Art "Artful Dodger" Spigel, Natasha Pospich, and their captain Tobias "Sniper" McKinney.Season 2 record: 7-4 (Eliminated in Semifinals)Ink, Incorporated: This team is composed of tattooed and pierced freaks. If they can withstand needles, they certainly can withstand dodgeball.

With these rent-a-cops' jobs of having to chase down lawbreakers and think fast 24/7, one would think that these guys would be the perfect team to win at dodgeball. And indeed, they did in Season 2 when they became the new Extreme Dodgeball champions!Lineup: Kel Watrin, David "Don't Call Me Condoleezza" Rice, Nicole "The Flying Z" Zingale, Tanya Fenderbosch, mid-season sub Danno Kingman, and their captain David "The Animal" Benedetto.Season 2 record: 9-4Expansion DivisionReef Sharks: This team is a surfer-themed team who shred up the court like they shred up the waves.Lineup: Mark "Big Nasty" Long, Chris "Blue Sky" Bullis, Amy " Three" Wiseman, Melanie Thomas, and their captain Mark "Pretty Boy" Pontius.Season 2 record: 6-6 (Eliminated in Semifinals)M.A.D.: Short for Mutually Assured Destruction, this team is made up of rocket scientists who have discovered the formula for mayhem.Lineup: Anna Bartsch, Marie "Regis" Philman, Mark Van Norden, Tarone Cathcart, and their captain Gary "Spaz" Davis.Season 2 record: 3-7 (Eliminated after regular season)Bling: These hip-hoppers are in the house and they will crush their competition just like a mouse.Lineup: Frank "The Big Pasta" Frisoli, Mia Parler, Alvina "Virginia Slim" Carroll, Adam Ullberg, and their captain Portis "The Crazy Chinchilla" Hershey.Season 2 record: 5-6 (Eliminated in Quarterfinals)Delta Force: They're defending their country in the battlefield, but they're defending their pride and honor here on the dodgeball court.Lineup: Geoff Meed, Bobby "Death" Roe, Lisa Marshall, Linda Overheu, and their captain Paul "Rambo" Green.Season 2 record: 7-5 (Eliminated in the final battle)All-Star TeamsCoupe DeBil: These players represent Bil Dwyer's Season 2 all-star team.Lineup: David Benedetto (Armed Response), Bobby Roe (Delta Force), Tyrone Rush (Barbell Mafia), Strati Hovartos (Ink, Inc.), and Mia Parler (Bling)Bil's overall record: 2-0Prozach: Zach Selwyn's boys from Season 2.Lineup: Michael Costanza (CPAs), Frank Frisoli (Bling), Mark Long (Reef Sharks), Paul Green (Delta Force), Anna Bartsch (M.A.D.)Zach's overall record: 0-2Extreme Dodgeball's second season began on Thursday, October 14, 2004 at 10 P.M. and ended on January 6, 2005. This season features a new sideline reporter, Mary Strong, and some new additions to the rules.Rules:A match in Extreme Dodgeball is the best of 3 games. A game is over when all 5 players on a team have been eliminated. For a more in-depth look at the rules, check this out.Alright, first the bad news. You're out if you get hit by a ball, someone catches your throw, you step out of bounds, or over the center line. If a ball hits you and a teammate, you're both out. You can use a ball for defense, but if it gets knocked out of your hand by another ball, you're out. Here's the good news. If a ball hits the floor or a wall, it's dead. Head shots do not count. Every time your team catches a ball, one of your out players gets to come back in the game. Now remember, if your team has possession of more than one ball the ref can call you on a 5-second delay of game warning. Keep it moving. When your team gets down to one player, that last man standing is going to have 20 seconds to try and survive. If he makes it the full 20, your whole team gets back in the game, but you can only use that once per game. That's it, have fun playing Extreme Dodgeball.In game 1, two balls are used.
In game 2, two balls and one big ball are used.
In game 3, both teams select a Dead Man Walking. If a team's Dead Man is eliminated in any way, then that team instantly loses the match. Two balls are used.Season OneIn school, some feared this game. Others relished it. But either way you look at it, it's back, and taken to the extreme! Extreme Dodgeball is where 8 teams fight it out for the grand prize of $10,000. The teams are as follows:Stallion Battalion: Just because these guys are incredibly short and the entire team can be dead lifted by one member of the Barbell Mafia, doesn't mean you can immediately count them out. They're small, they're fast, and they're hard to hit.Lineup: Kenny "Dirty" Sanchez, Mark "M&M" Munoz, Christina "Shorty" Knizner, Lissette Garcia, and their captain Michael "Horse Dawg" Pipkin.Season 1 record: 1-5 (Eliminated in Quarterfinals)Curves of Steel: These gorgeous babes may distract other teams. Other teams may have trouble concentrating from looking at this team. They are also difficult targets. However, their only real offensive power is in their lone male.Lineup: Kel Watrin, Maritza Franco, Amelie McKendry, Lillith "Fair" Fields, and their captain Kimberly "The Kiminator" Estrada.Season 1 record: 3-3 (Eliminated in Quarterfinals)Silent But Deadly Mimes: Mimes are very flexible physically, and being quick on your feet is important in this game. Plus, the element of surprise could be exhibited in their inability to talk.Lineup: Lamonte Goode, Laura Hight, Jolie Bailey, Stephen Sande, and their captain Mark "Pretty Boy" Pontius.Season 1 record: 2-4 (Eliminated in Quarterfinals)Sumo Storm: These huge guys are very huge, slow, and easy to hit, unlike Stallion Batallion. However, their weight behind their throws may make up for it, although it hasn't all season.Lineup (season 1): Jon Beardsley, Crystal "Chainsaw" Cartwright, Billy Aquaviva, Dante Aligheri, mid-season sub Katasha Nelson, and their captain Americus Abesimus.Season 1 record: 0-6 (Eliminated in Quarterfinals)Certified Public Assassins: The champions from season 1, dressed as certified public accountants (that's really what CPA stands for), these guys were the biggest nerds in their schools, but now they're here to dodge red rubber balls like they dodge the IRS.Lineup: Mandy "Sunshine" Sommers, Michael "Handsome" Costanza, Steve Altes, Gretchen "Stretch" Weiss, and their captain Tobias "Sniper" McKinney.Season 1 record: 8-0Ink, Incorporated: This team is composed of tattooed and pierced freaks.

Their offensive power is unparalled, and their looks may intimidate other teams.Lineup: Jeramy "The Mountain" Freeman, Alan "Diesel" Grimes, Melissa "Coats Rack" Coates, Amazon Beard, and their captain Tyrone Rush.Season 1 record: 5-3 (Eliminated in Championship)Armed Response: The early season favorites to win the whole thing. With these rent-a-cops' jobs of having to chase down lawbreakers and think fast 24/7, one would think that these guys would be the perfect team to win at dodgeball.Lineup: Clay "Chainsaw" Krueger, Michelle Manumaleuna, Andrew Brawley, Laura "Major" Farley, and the captain, David "The Animal" Benedetto.Season 1 record: 4-3 (Eliminated in Semifinals)All-Star TeamsFriends of Bil: These guys were chosen by Bil Dwyer as his personal all-star team from Season 1.Lineup: Kel Watrin (Curves of Steel), Tyrone Rush (Barbell Mafia), Billy Aquaviva (Sumo Storm), Tobias McKinney (Certified Public Assassins), and Clay Krueger (Armed Response).Bil's record: 1-0Selwyn's Smoking Jackets: This team is a group of players from Season 1 picked by Zach Selwyn as his all-star team.Lineup: Kenny Sanchez (Stallion Battalion), Ben Toth (Ink, Incorporated), Michael Costanza (Certified Public Assassins), Mark Pontius (Silent But Deadly Mimes), and David Benedetto (Armed Response).Zach's record: 0-1Rules:A match in Extreme Dodgeball is the best of 3 games.
