Suprising the amount of people that forget that Delta is one of the oldest teams on the circuit and yet we are forgotten by so many.

What about Blackburn Sabre another north of the m62 team!

Why is it that the furthest up North that event go is Elsham or was that Mudsham. Shallow end or Deep end it's your choice!

Should enough teams request it I am sure that we could get a small Northern 5 man Series going. Say 6 events in the year one, nothing south of the M62.

I too am feed up of getting up at 3.00 am to travel too Brimingham or further.

Paintballer's in the North just need too shout we are here let us play in the North!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Storm the castle used to be a real good event as well :)

More Northern teams than I thought!! which is a good thing... you forget how many people from up here play tourneys as people seem to attend different events!! :)

Would be good to get tourneys going in the actual north of England. Don't know if I could play a 5 man series though, much prefer 7. Although I can see the draw of 5 man to some teams :)

i will still travel the length of the country to play but even one tourney within an hour would be nice:D

To be realistic your going to need at least 24 or more teams to make it financialy viable option, then it will probably need to be a 5-man format similiar to the midland masters just to get the numbers there.
Then you have to fit in the tourny dates in an allready overcrowded calender
cant see it happening myself but.................................................

thanks will :cool:

anyhoo i made a post on a northern tournament somewhere not so long ago, but the agreement was too many established tournies for a northern one to make a stand, plus with the lack of sup air up north??? i no we have a field or two at carlisle but i severily doubt its tourny capability :) tho i guess we only need one acceptable site rite?

o wel not for a while anyway

maybe a new venture will....i mean all that cash has to go somewhere!:cool:
