Latrobe Valley Dodgeball League is organized by a non-for-profit committee made up from our playing community. This means that every dollar made goes back into the league for continued improvement and benefit to our community as a whole.

Committee Members
|
President:
Damian "Damo" Anderson. "Do good by stealth, be humbled by recognition.' I enjoy the game and felt there was an opportunity to contribute to the Latrobe Valley Dodgeball community as a whole, not just by playing, but by assisting to make it a great league." |

Vice President:
Shannon Nikodemski "Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts." I wasn't a sporting person, I felt lost and didn't know what I wanted to do until I decided to come to Dodgeball at LVDL. I have met so many amazing people in the LVDL community who I call my friends. Being the first LGBTQIA+ committee member, I hope to help spread the same support in our Dodgeball community for others that I have experienced from the moment I joined! |

Secretary:
Scott McAlpine. “ The league is as only good as its players and volunteers. We all need to do our part, that's why i am here! As a player, it’s all about the camaraderie and the adrenaline rush. I.e. A game was scored 6-7 Us vs Them on the siren. I was a fill in, my first game back after a break. Me alone, 1 vs 4. I win the round and force a tie break, then I help win the game 8-7. I also like to think of dad jokes to try to outdo Mitch Howell, but I never succeed.” |

Treasurer:
Jacob Hunt "Winning is great, but how you pick yourself back up after a loss shows your true character." I have been involved with the LVDL now for a few years. I have met some of the most caring and compassionate people in the league. Dodgeball has helped me overcome some of my bad habits, change my mindset and helped me focus on what is important. My goal is to make both newcomers and returning community members feel as welcome as my predecessors did for me. |

General Committee Member:
Andrew Williams "Don't be afraid to make decisions. Don't be afraid to make mistakes." I never thought I'd join the committee for dodgeball. I had so many ideas that could help the Latrobe Valley Dodgeball League grow as a sport, as a community and make sure that everyone got the chance to express themselves, as it should be. My goal for being on the committee is to give everyone the chance to learn, have fun and be themselves. The friendships that I've developed from LVDL have helped me figure out who I am as a person. |
