The World Dodgeball Federation, commonly known by the acronym WDBF , is the international governing body of association dodgeball. Its headquarters are in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The WDBF is responsible for the organization of dodgeball’s major international tournaments, notably the Dodgeball World Championships.
