In the dodgeball game that followed, the players passed the caught ball to the children when playing with the younger teams. However, when playing with the older teams, they threw the ball seriously and hit the children. Toyokawa was hit by a ball thrown by a child, and Sugimoto's thrown ball was caught by a girl.
