Grades: 2 – 8 8-week session GaGa is an Israeli version of dodgeball that is a fan favorite amongst campers and staff throughout the summer at camp! Come join us for our first annual, fun-filled spring GaGa league! Everyone is welcome and encouraged to join! If you are not sure how to play, don’t worry, we’ll teach you! All players will register as individuals. Each week will consist of 2 v 2, 3 v 3, and “Monsterball” games. Each week teams will be chosen by staff, at random, to compete in 2 v 2 and 3 v 3 games. This will give all players the opportunity to play with a variety of different teammates throughout the season. The “Monsterball” portion are free-for-all games whereas one player is chosen to try to get everyone out. Team varieties and “Monsterball” games are done so the best athlete doesn’t always win, and everyone gets a chance to play on different teams from one week to the next. All games will be refereed by Weinstein JCC staff.
