Dodgeballers Dislodged

You've no doubt seen this, but, for the record...from Sea. Times:

"Dodgeball group can't play on Capitol Hill tennis courts
Seattle Street Dodgeball, a group that has been chucking playground balls at Cal Anderson Park on Capitol Hill for more than a year, will have to find a new home. The Seattle Parks Superintendent has ruled that the group can no longer play on tennis courts at the park.

By Seattle Times staff
In a dispute between dodgeball and tennis players over who can use public tennis courts in Cal Anderson Park on Capitol Hill, tennis won.

Seattle Parks Superintendent Timothy Gallagher said Thursday that dodgeball could not be played on city tennis courts.

Seattle Street Dodgeball, a group that has been chucking playground balls at Cal Anderson for more than a year, had asked the city to sanction their game on city tennis courts. The courts at Cal Anderson have the best proportions for dodgeball, organizers said.

Tennis players protested that dodgeball took up time on courts intended for tennis and damaged court surface and nets. It made sense to find another place for dodgeball, said parks spokeswoman Dewey Potter.

New signs will go up at Cal Anderson in mid-September, saying the courts can be used only for tennis.

The city has offered Seattle Street Dodgeball free access to indoor space at a community center for now and will work with the players to find a permanent home, Potter said."

So the system works...possibly, sort of, in spite of itself, partially, could be, sometimes by coincidence, to a degree, I still have my doubts, maybe, maybe not, who knows....stay vigilant.
