Every year on Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend, hundreds of players travel to Las Vegas to compete in what is widely known in the dodgeball community as the best and most fun tournament of the year. With women’s, coed no-sting™ and an ALL QUEER REMIX DIVISION, there are over a hundred teams coming to play hard and party harder, including teams from Canada, England Australia, and Denmark all making appearances!
Each division has different requirements, with women’s and coed no-sting allowing for a maximum of 4 straight players per team and for the QUEER REMIX DIVISION, only LGBTQ+ identifying players will be allowed. Requirements like this have allowed for WeHo Dodgeball to develop a more inclusive player set, create space for LGBTQ+ athletes to flourish and to promote an environment that allows people to meet and play with new friends from across the globe.
“Sin City Dodgeball is everything I love about dodgeball and why I continue to play,” says Val Horton, Director of League Operations. “High levels of competition and athleticism combined with an incredible sense of community.”
“Sin City Classic shows us that our community is worldwide. It allows us to meet new people who love playing competitive sports and gives us an opportunity to have new experiences with people we've known for years,” Ale Bustamante, Head Sin City Tournament Coordinator.

Trans and non-binary athletes have always been welcomed in all Sin City Dodgeball divisions: Women’s, Mixed-Gender, and the Queer Remix. Our Women’s and Mixed Gender Divisions welcomes any players who identify as women. Gender identity and expression are complex and we do not attempt to define what a woman is. Trans women are women and are included implicitly. Many trans women have proudly played with us over the years. Players who identify as both women and non-binary are also included; the only question for determining eligibility within the division is whether the player identifies as a woman. Only you can tell us how you feel the most comfortable identifying. Sin City Dodgeball uses three distinct divisions to accommodate all attendees while creating and protecting dedicated spaces for diverse underrepresented communities.
