Advice for first time at a milenium event

[Richard Kirke (DUPS Rocket) UK]

Thanks

Guys,

There's some good advice there (I think) thanks. Since I havge played on a very inexperienced team for a fair bit of my career (that's not the tright word, but it'll do) I heartily aprove of the "Respect not awe" atitude, we have beaten a few teams that didn't show us enough repect and payed for it

Our first tourney we played Shokwave UK, and we shot one of them he he he he he.

Any more advice keep it coming.

Flash, I look forward to seeing the legendary race-grip

Just don't embaris me thats all i ask: No hair nets allowed on my team . Turning up on the field on time would also be nice. My job at stb should not have been 'looking for Richard'.
You know you can do it I wouldn't have asked you otherwise. See you there.

I will do my best. The hair net, is from the forgotten past don't worry. I have even got rid of the mask that you and Hatts complained so much about.

I will do my level best, but thought that these guys might have some good bits of advice, advanced warning about things that might be helpful.

Thanks guys,

Richard

Be sure to watch all the good teams play, they are the best resource in the world to learn from so go and learn.

About the respect not awe thing, at mayhem last year (my first milenium) our team (SAD) beat lockout and I personally tagged two of them which was nice...............

Second:

After each game, first get your kit in order and ready, then go over the game plan for the next game, and focus on what you are going to do on that particular field.... don't waste time and concentration of all kinds of **** that doesn't help you win the next game.

just wen going over the game plan make sure that the team you are next playing are not behind you listening to every word you say. we made that mistake with big sid, just before playing escramouche in toulouse well its all a learning curve

hey rich,

what teams have you played for, it is just DUPS?
from speaking to people i just thought that you played before you went to uni, if i am wrong it is my mistake, i must have gotten confused when speaking to Alex H, at the indoors in feb, curse that friday night and the bar

Thanks

I started paintball at Durham with the DUPS, its Alex who had palyed before (AFAIK) This year the DUPS has not had enough interest in tourney play to put together a team, so I have been guesting for a team called "The Fighting Hellfish" whenever they needed an extra player.

Thanks for all the advice

Richard

I got a hell of a wake up call last year when I started playing Millenium events. The standard of opposition you will face (even in the novice division) is generally higher than you will play here. The only real advice I can give is "stay in the game", keep tight and don't let your opposition dominate you.
