Dodgeball? Pshaw. Ball tag.

Dodgeball? Pshaw. We had a pool and this semi-inflated rubber ball we always used for ball tag. Easy to grab and throw really hard, harsh to get slapped with when wet, and my brother could really make that thing sting from all the way across the pool! Still feel it fifty years later.

I had some probs as a kid (got over them), so, I wasn't the LAST guy chosen for the grade school baseball team, but that was because of the really dumpy kid with the bad haircut (you've seen him on the Simpsons). Funny thing I found out about being chosen next-to-last. You end up on the better team.
