The Doritos Dodgeball Challenge has a winner - LEEDS HAWKEYES!

Doritos wanted to find the nation’s top dodgers, to take on the best in America, the San Diego Crossfire. The match will be available to view on the Doritos website on 25th June.

The teams competed live on line against players at home on their PC’s, everyday from 1st-31st May 2009.
