Haven't played dodgeball since 7th grade? It's OK, neither had any of us. When Howe Rice, Owner/Operator of several Chick-fil-A locations, decided to host a Charity Dodgeball Tournament, the rest was, as they say, history. In 2011, Richmond Chick-fil-A will be hosting their sixth annual dodgeball tournament on October 8th. Atlanta Chick-fil-A has been enjoying tremendous success with their own tournaments, They will be hosting their fifth tournament, The World Games, on June 4, 2011. The World Games encompasses numerous team activities including soccer, kickball, volleyball, 3 on 3 basketball, dodgeball and even corn hole. There's something for everyone. With two locations to choose from, certainly you ought to be able to put a team together and enter the competition. Best of all, each one benefits a local charity and Schools for Niger.
In April 2008, while in Atlanta for the Chick-fil-A Charity Dodgeball Tournament, THE LINK™'s Director, Michael Thaler, caught up with Chick-fil-A Owner/Operators Jason Bilotti and Howe Rice to discuss the story behind the inspiration for these tournaments.
