Bulldawgs Bring Back Gatorball
Posted on 04/04/2022
You could sense the excitement in the halls at Royal Oak Middle School with the return of Gatorball! The teams were signed up and the bracket was ready. Gatorball is ROMS version of dodgeball using soft foam balls rather than hard rubber ones.
Gatorball is a fundraising and plain ol' fun event held at the middle school organized by Student Council. The event involved staff teams, links peer-to-peer student teams, and student teams for a total of 11 co-ed teams. Over $700 was raised from the event for New Beginnings Animal Rescue.
"We are beyond proud of our ROMS Student Council members who planned, organized, and executed an amazing event! The Royal Oak Community came out to show their support for our student participants and a great cause. It was amazing to have our first large scale, in person, event be such a success." - Lindsey Potterack and Kate Chambers (Student Council Advisors)
This annual event was canceled in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic.
