We didn’t have to wait long for the first – and we didn’t yet know, but the last – dodgeball game of 2020. On 6th January, at Kisújszállás, the Kossuth Dodgeball Cup was held for the first time, where teams in two age groups participated.

After fair and exciting games, to many people’s surprise, two 5th class boy teams made it to the finals, where class 5C managed to win in a very close game against 5A’s boy team.

As a bonus, the winners got the chance to play against the teachers’ team, where, although the kids were very persistent, at the end the routine and practice helped the teacher team to win at the countryside’s first Youth Cup.

The Globo-Gym Lila Kobrák team did not even give a chance to their opponents and won the tournament undefeated. Another interesting fact about the cup was that for the first time, even the professors participated with a team..

We gladly come, as everyone can see that the atmosphere is great. Some people, for example, only come to cheer on the teams and have fun. I think that this event is a great example for the student initiatives having ‘present and future’. We are in this lucky situation that our university has outstanding sport values and the Institute of Sport Science absolutely supports these initiatives.

Hungary Dodgeball news , , ,

The Pannon Dodgeball Cup was created to bring together everyone, who likes 5-ball dodgeball, in the region. We are proud that at Siófok we could host the Croatian and the World Championship participant Slovenian National Dodgeball Teams.

It is really important for us to play as many matches as possible with teams that are more experienced than us because that’s how we can close up to the top teams quickly. The fate of the first Pannon Dodgeball Cup was decided by an exciting and varied game.

In the first half of the match – that could have easily been a final as well – the teams were winning the sets in turns, they exchanged courts with Croatia leading the game with 6-4. At the second half of the game, Slovenia started strong, they took the lead for 10-6 after winning three sets in a row. The Croatian team asked for a time-out and with a phenomenal endgame they turned around the game for 14-10.

„This is the first tournament, apart from EDF, that we participated in with the Croatian National Team. And we loved it, great organization, for which we hereby congratulate Ferenc, very nice hosts and, of course, we are proud that we won the Pannon Cup. We will come next year too and we will do everything to defend our title.
Thanks again to the Hungarian hosts and we’ll see each other next year!„
