Playing for a Cause: Haiti Relief


The play-in games this year will carry much more significance than in previous years. But this time its for a greater cause. The DBL has decided to turn these games into a charity event for the city of St. Louis and DBL fans everywhere.

Commissioner Halim had this to say:
"The DBL is taking this opportunity to focus on the more important things in life. There is much suffering going on in Haiti right now, and the DBL is doing all it can to help. The admission tickets will to the cause, the merchandise sales from now until the 31st, and the auctioning of the special "Aide Haiti" edition uniforms after the games are over will all go towards the cause. We are happy to be in St. Louis, one of the great Dodgeball towns to depend on helping us in our efforts. They have always been a great community. We hope to have great games, and aid in this Haiti situation as best we can."

The theme of the games will be the color red to support the cause. T-Shirts will go on sale during the play-in games in Meteor Gym and on-line at DBL.com. Here are the special uniforms that will be worn:
