or in other words....how do you get things for free or next to nothing.
just like everything in life....you have to work hard for it you only get out what you put in.
most retailers will offer you 'team assistance' which usually means a discount for bulk buying i.e markers/playing gear for a bit of advertising and loyalty towards that supplier in return.

Hi guys
Further to what Mark (formally of the Uttoxeter Sharks) has said already, we are in the process of getting something set up.....I love hard work and that's what its going to come down to.
We aim to resurrect the sup air scene back into Staffordshire, get a good squad of players together and also try to get a junior section going as well in order to bring the next generation into the game.
Now that NPG Uttoxeter is set up again for the Masters (and the fact that we're good friends of Jamie the site owner) it seems like not to do this would be a wasted opportunity - and I'm not speaking of myself here, I'm talking about the people in the area who want to play sup air and for newcomers to the sport. Jamie has enough on his hands running his two sites and the rest of his businesses, but gives us 100% support and backing behind this new team.
I guess what we are asking for is ideas on how to progress this further.....we don't want to make anything out of this (I'm ready to dig deep into my own pocket to make this work).
Team names thrown around so far are:
1. The Staffordshire Assassins
2. The Staffordshire Bull Terriers
3. The lucky 15 Assassins (as a link to my woods ball team but I'm not keen)
Any other ideas?
Rob, thanks again for your words.....look forward to speaking to you again on Sunday.
