UPDATE (5/04)
Our Saturday, May 8th Skills Clinic is officially sold out now. If you still want to register for our skills clinic, please register for our May 10th edition. Click on the link provided below to sign up!
UPDATE (4/26)
The wait is over! We’re opening our registration doors to our SECOND and THIRD skills clinic training camp! Don’t miss this last chance of the season!
Do you suffer from consistent blows to the head? Does your arm hurt after a night of playing? Feeling unconfident because you can’t seem to catch anyone’s eye (because you can’t catch any balls)? Well, we’ve got the answer for you!
Come out to our Season 9 Skills Clinic Training Camp, where you’ll learn how to throw, catch, block, and plenty more! Not only that, but with the package comes our own well-trained and experienced Execs (experts in their field, of course) on hand to teach you individual and team strategy, give demonstration and tips on proper technique, and even some practice time!
Not only that, you get to try out your new skills with some games and hopefully new friends! It is time to leave your muscle inflammation remedies at home, so register now and we’ll even teach you about injury prevention!

This is really going to be the last skills clinic of the season. As you may already know, our first one sold like hot cakes, so don’t wait too long — act quick!
WHat? I got the email about the skills clinic at 1:09 and signed up 5 minutes later, but I didn’t get in. I’m on a waiting list .
Hey Toshi,
The waiting list email was sent out due to a glitch, please disregard it. We have received your registration for the skills clinic and it’s confirmed.
To the rest of VDL’ers,
The clinic is not sold out yet but it’s already more than half full! Register fast and learn how to be a hero, dodgeball style!
Cheers,
Victoria
It’s officially sold out now!
when will a link be sent to register for the may 8th one?
or should i just sign up for this and be waitlisted
The next skills clinic sign up form will be available shortly.
You can always sign up for our April 24th session wait-list to see if any free spots become available.
Hey I want to swap my April 24th session of Skills clinic with the later one. Who can help me?
Would you guys be able to create a follow-up summary post of the skills clinic, especially of the dodgeball-specific stretches and warm up exercises that you went through? I have a horrible memory and forgot most of them… No biggie if you don’t though, I’ll just start moving my arm around randomly and hope something good happens.

Hey Jasmine,
Check this out: http://vdldodgeball.ca/blog/how-to-throw-properly
Doesn’t really cover the specific stretches and warm-ups we went through in the clinic, but should be enough for preventative measures to avoid a doctor’s visit. Talk to any Execs on duty at your gym, and they should be able to help you out with stretches if you’ve forgotten stuff from the clinic.
Thanks Pete!
