Campaign Cup at the NEC Birmingham 2005

Is there anyone on here who played this event? I'm really looking for the guys who coached the players from Kerrang on the Sunday - I think it was Birmingham Phoenix and a Nottingham team, possibly tremor or Nitro? Post up if it was you, that was my 1st ever game of paintball, on the Millennium field. Best way to start I say!

Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it! I certainly did. Never played before but as soon as I got home I was hunting the net for my own gear, addicted after 1 game. I'm pretty sure our team was coached by Nottingham, shooting Dm or Pms, with Halos or re-loaders. We were wearing Proto gear and we won (obviously). The breakfast show were in blue empire gear, not sure what they were shooting though.

I remember it well - was on the side lines photographing it for Paintball Kit
Was one of the highlights of the day. Very enjoyable
Glad to hear that some one from that bit of fun progressed into the game.

Team in Red Proto Shirts

I was playing the Teabag, thats me on the photo, third from the left with the DMC. If I remember right it was Tim Shaw, the lanky dude on the right that hit the M, while Tony went on a mugging run down the snake and hung the flag. All I remember was hitting the teabag and the Ref coming over and wiping me off! Good times!

if the picture is the coaches as well

You have Bash (middle), Robin warman (tall in the blue dye t on the left) and i'm not sure of the third. At that time i think they were on Campaign jaguars.

To my knowledge both the named players no longer play

I am really glad that some of the 10,000 pictures we took that weekend survived.
Some how the magazine lost most of them, all our hard work wasted with no reward
At least these are here to bring back the good memories too
