Dodgeball Anyone? The AAC is Putting Together Some Tiger Teams
Were you the king or queen of the playground? Well, now is your chance to relive your glory days and settle some long forgotten scores... If you've ever wanted to get your hands on a red rubber ball and make Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn proud --- this is the event for you!

The Atlanta Sports Council, Chick-fil-A, 790 The Zone, Project 9-6-1, Cobb Galleria Center and Dodge are sponsoring a Chick-fil-A Bowl Charity Dodgeball Tournament --- Duck-n-Dodge --- and they've asked the Atlanta Auburn Club to get together a team or teams to help represent the SEC!
The tournament is set for Saturday, April 19 at Cobb Galleria Center. And in the adult division, other ACC and SEC teams will also be represented.
There are 10 people to a team. Cost to enter the tournament is: $20/per person.
And what's better than taking out your opponent? Well, how about some cash and free Chick-fil-A? The adult division winning team will receive $1,000, plus each team member gets FREE Chick-fil-A for a Year (prize for winners is 52 coupons each for one Chick-fil-A combo meal per week for an entire year).
If there is enough participation, the Chick-fil-A Bowl will also host a 'happy hour' following the event.
