Fancy increasing your fitness without the boredom? Come along to dodgeball and have a ball without the bore, meeting new friends and being a part of something new and welcoming to everyone.
Dodgeball is a very new club to Christ Church, that was only started up in July 2023. So come be apart of something new and help us make history!
No worries if you've never played before, we'll coach you with all the tips and tricks you'll need on your dodgeballing journey, to play with us competitively or casually. As we go head first into our first ever BUCS tournament this year! So come along and help us win!!!
Dodgeball will take place indoors, so come rain or shine we can get on court and have some fun no matter the weather.
Our Dodgeball sessions will be:
Monday (Pick up & Play) --> 17:30 - 18:30
Tuesday (Official BUCs training) --> 18:30 - 20:00
@ Christ Church Sports Hall, CT1 1XS
We'll have multiple events being hosted throughout the year so make sure you keep an eye on our Instagram @cccu_dodgeball for more updates!
The membership for our club will be £10, which we will put into our club to go towards kit and equipment to improve our sessions for you. You would also need to purchase the Christ Church competitive membership to attend our weekly sessions throughout the academic year.
Hope to see you there!
All the best,
Your friendly committee <3
How to Join
In order to play for sports teams at Christ Church you need to purchase the two different memberships linked on this page: Students' Union Sport Membership and Christ Church Sport Subscription.
Christ Church Sport Subscription + Students' Union Sport Membership = Sports Club Member
Without both memberships & subscription you will not be able to take part in your club's activities, training and matches.

Once you've purchased your Christ Church Sport Membership it's time to buy your Students' Union Sport Membership.
