About us
We’re a not-for-profit community sports club providing dodgeball sessions to juniors and adults throughout the Greater Manchester area. Manchester Bees was founded in 2013 by ex-uni players, and we are accredited by British Dodgeball – the national governing body for the sport.
No matter who you are, you’re welcome here at the Manchester Bees Dodgeball Club. We’re buzzin’ to meet you!
Whether you’re an international dodgeball player or have never touched a ball before, we’ve got a session for you.
