Last night at FNL we launched our very first Dodgeball tournament. Tension filled the air and emotions were running high as the competitors came from far and wide to claim the glory for their own! The excitement was so palpable that we began the night by shaving half of Jono Schoots' hair off, just to show how wild we are! FNL, we bring the party!

But after all the onstage fanfare was out the way, the action on the court began! Team after team dodged, ducked, dived, dipped and dodged their way through the elimination rounds, until there were only two teams remaining. Team Dargeball, ably captained by the teams name-sake, Andrew Darge came face to face with the up to then unbeatable "Please Don't Hit us in The Knutters" team...a bunch of crazed misfits from Melkbos Private School and the like. The final was so intense, so dramatic, so brutal, so full of drama of every kind, words just cannot do justice. But as the last man of the Knutters was felled by a Dylan Theron outswinger, Team Dargeball were left alone on the centre court, arms aloft with strains of "we are the champions" by Queen echoing through the stands!

It was a night that no one there will forget easily...except for all who felt the fury of Team Dargeball!
