Are you ready to dodge, duck, dip, dive...and dodge?

A new community sporting event is being launched by Isle Listen as part of Mental Health Awareness Week in May.

The inaugural Isle of Man Dodgeball Championship will take place on 16 May in the National Sports Centre’s main hall, open to teams of six to nine players.

The charity hopes the event will promote mental wellbeing through physical activity and social engagement.

Lewis Foster has been speaking with Isle Listen's Steven Downward and Juan Christian, alongside Mikey Haslett from Active Souls.
