What is an Affiliate League?

An affiliate league is a dodgeball league that is affiliated to British Dodgeball. The league is run outside the British Dodgeball National League pyramid, Mixed and Regional Leagues (Adult, Junior or University) by an associate organisation or group.

What are the benefits of affiliation?

• Recognition that the league is endorsed by the National Governing Body for dodgeball. This will assist in the promotion of the league to teams, players and referees.
• All British Dodgeball members participating in affiliated leagues are subject to British Dodgeball’s disciplinary processes if the league requires support. In game sanctions such as yellow or red cards will be handled by the affiliate league and will not carry over to British Dodgeball events. More serious breaches of the British Dodgeball Code of Conduct however may be subject to sanction from British Dodgeball.
• Leagues will have access to British Dodgeball qualified referees.
• Affiliated leagues will gain support from British Dodgeball staff in relation to league rules and format.
• Affiliated leagues will have the opportunity to publish their league and results on the British Dodgeball website. This will include the affiliated league finder map.

How do I affiliate my league?

You can renew or register for Affiliate League Membership by paying the yearly affiliation fee of £100*. Once you have completed payment a member of the British Dodgeball team will be in touch to support you with league format and the full set up process.

*Please note that the maximum number of teams participating in a league per affiliation is 12. For leagues with multiple leagues or with more than 12 teams participating an additional affiliation fee is required for every 12 teams.
