INTRUST BANK ARENA ANNOUNCES THIRD ANNUAL CHARITY DODGEBALL TOURNAMENT
(Wichita, Kan.) – INTRUST Bank Arena is excited to announce the return of DodgeBrawl, a one-day adult dodgeball tournament, on Saturday, July 14. This event, which is returning for its third consecutive year, allows teams to compete in an effort to raise money for a charity of their choice. Each winning team’s selected charity/non-profit receives a financial donation on behalf of the tournament.
DodgeBrawl is a fun, double-elimination dodgeball tournament played on the arena floor of INTRUST Bank Arena. Teams consist of 6 to 10 adults, ages 18 and over, playing for annual bragging rights and the opportunity to win money for a local charity of their choice. Teams will also have the chance to win additional prizes and earn bragging rights through unique contests such as “Best Dressed Team” and “Best Team Name”. A beer garden will be open for players and fans, and a live DJ will be providing the day’s entertainment.
“DodgeBrawl adds a unique and rewarding perspective to the lineup of events we have at INTRUST Bank Arena,” said A.J. Boleski, SMG General Manager. “The atmosphere at the tournament is energetic and upbeat, and to top it off, we’re able to make financial donations to three local charities at the end of the day. After two years under our belts, I think our staff would agree that this is one of the most fun events we get to work.”
Early-Bird team registration is now open. Teams can register at the price of $25 per player, with a minimum of six players comprising a team, now through Friday, May 25. Beginning May 26, team registration will increase to $35 per player. DodgeBrawl is a great opportunity for local businesses and organizations in the community to organize a team of employees and compete for a cause with the goal of raising money for a charity of their choice. Fans are encouraged to attend to cheer on their friends and families; admission and on-site parking to attend the event and watch the tournament is free.
