And without offending any of the 13-16 year olds here, is there actually any need for this age bracket in paintball? realistically what do they contribute? to young to go away to milleniums etc etc and unless mummy and daddy are exceptionally wealthy, they certainly won't have the financing to support themselves.
just a thought.....
I'm 16 myself, soon to turn 17. Been playing for about a year and a half now.
I played every UKM my team entered in last year, and will strive to do the same this year.
Also played 3 tournaments with other teams, just for the experience and good practice.
I attended the Millenium in the UK last year.
And from the experience, I won't be attending another.
I buy my own guns, both used on the forum and brand new from the shops, and don't scrounge and beg for free bits and money off.
Sure I get a bit of team discount, but every 18-50 year old on the team gets that too.
All of this from my own financing, paintball is so darn fun it pushed me to get a job.
So I'd like to think I've done something in the paintball community
We aren't all little scrotes you know, haha.
