Betty has been involved in the Calgary dodgeball scene since 2013 and started playing the 7” WDBF format in 2019.

Kim Fehr
Director of Sport and Player Development
Kim started playing rubber dodgeball in 2007 and eventually created No Balls, Edmontons first all women's dodgeball team. No Balls was league champions for numerous years following their first season. Female empowerment in dodgeball is the heart of her focus and will take any opportunity to encourage women to lean in! She was initially drawn to dodgeball as a sport but ended up finding a community of friends and fantastic teammates.
She has organized two charity corporate dodgeball tournaments and lead her corporate challenge foam dodgeball teams to victory 3 years in a row. She loves bringing people together and if she is in a team, chances are she is the captain.
She has been supporting Dodgeball Edmonton since their inception. After a few years of resistance she finally committed to playing WDBF foam competitively. In 2022 with the support of her co-captains, she created the Edmonton Aurora Women's Dodgeball Team. This team went from a group of fairly new dodgeballers to winning Silver at Alberta Provincials in 2024!

Rachel Wong
Director of Records
Rachel has been playing some form of organized dodgeball since 2009 and loves seeing the constant growth of the community and the sport for the past 15 years. The 2024 Canadian National Championship will be her 5th national appearance.
When not on the court, she can be found on the golf course, traveling, lifting weights, or at the hot yoga studio.

Priscilla Buteau
Director of Events
Priscilla started her dodgeball career back in 2008, playing 8" Rubber Dodgeball for 9 years before making her debut in 7" Foam Dodgeball in 2017 and you may see her casually hiding in the corner of a 8.25" Foam Dodgeball court. In 2024, Priscilla competed for the sixth time at the Canadian National Dodgeball Championships and it may just be her last; 15 years on the dodgeball court is a long time!
