What U lot like ????

It's nice to see most of you lots supporting us women in our quest to play the macho game.
I have only just started playing myself having worked at campaign for a couple of months but I'm hocked, it's fantastic.
After working campaign cup I was convinced I was gonna play even if I was really ****,but hey I've got to start somewhere.

Plus it gave me something to talk to the boyfriend about!!
You guys @ campaign will understand that dig!!!

Playing my first tournoment in November and cant wait to whoop some of your butts to be honest !!!

Just a quick thanks to Campaign and the great guys down there who gave me a chance to play!! You guys are the best!!!

Cheers
:D :) :D

Now here's the problem...

I somehow always end up hearing of all the female players here, and never see them in person! Come over here!!! It's cheap to play down here, and plenty of good fields.

Oh who the hell am I kidding...I NEED A GOOD LOOKING GIRL THAT PLAYS PAINTBALL SO SHE CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS THAT I DO ON THE WEEKENDS!!!

I think that is what most paintballers are looking for !!

Believe me, if I wasn't going out with a paintballer I probally would have never played.
It never crossed my mind to go and lie in a field and get shot at for fun!!

To be honest the reason I tryed it was to keep the boyfriend
happy, which is a really lame reason to do something.
I never expected to get the buzz that I got it was amazing, so amazing that I went back and play the nexted day!!

I think the problem is that punters come down and play the day go home and think yer that was good but if they want to play more often where do they go??

I wouldn't have known where to go if I didn't work at Campaign.

The females players are out there it's just a matter of making paintball an easier sport to access.
E.g teams, equipment etc.

Well I think you will probally hear me before you see me, and I cant wait to meet all you guys out there who are willing to give us girls a chance a at game.

See Ya


:D :p :p :D

A largely untapped market...

Ya know, with all the marketing that goes on in paintball to get existing people to cough up more money for more stuff, you'd think that a key demographic known for compulsive accessorizing, extended shopping trips, endless displaying of new purchases, tireless gift giving, insatiable appetite for diets, stress relief, and healthy activities like aerobics and running, and colossal peer pressure to buy, buy, buy to keep in style would be a major target for the paintball industy, but it has been thus far at least in my perception totally ignored...

16 to 40+ year old single women!!!! Why?!?! :confused:

Getting them into paintball would accomplish the many fold objectives of the business, but for some reason it has been weakly attempted by some and totally abandoned by others. There are no JT ads in 17, Young Women's Magazine, Cosmopolitan, etc. There are no "Ladies Day" specials at fields. No cases of Hellfire or Allstar next to the women's razors and bath oil beads (made by RP Scherer no less). No VL pods in the grocery store checkout isles. There are 9v batteries on display, but no 12v Revo's or Warp feeds next to them.

These may seem unrealistic, but they could be done. They need to be.

Let's be realistic here shall we !!

I don't think to be honest that you will ever get a hugh amount of female players. Sad to say but thats my opinion.

It's up to you guys to find girlfriends and get them to play I'm afraid !!!

I must admit though the lack of info availiable off the net about Paintball is abismal, For a sport that cost so much money you'd think that you might be able to access it abit better.

Guess it's up to us girls to get our mates involed and you single guys to get girlfriends !! Good Luck !!

:p :D :p
