Toms River Police Holding Dodgeball Tourney For Unity Tour

The event is open to all teams and will raise money for police officers participating in the 2019 Unity Tour bicycle ride to Washington.

TOMS RIVER, NJ — If you miss the days where you hit friends with a big red rubber ball because you loved the "BOING" sound the ball made, gather your friends and jump into the Toms River PBA 137 Dodgeball Tournament.

The tournament is being held by the PBA in conjunction with the Toms River Police Foundation to raise funds for Toms River police officers participating in the annual Police Unity Tour.

The Police Unity Tour travels from New Jersey to the Police Memorial in Washington, DC, and honors the memories of those officers who have died or been killed in the line of duty. The bicycle tour is held annually in May.
