my missus has said from her point of view of more a member of the general public than a p'baller (she's played twice and is still not sure) but it's a gem
"of course you'd wear cammo's in the woods, thier cheap, functional and help you hide but i don't think cammo would be appropriate on a tournament field"
and for my two penneth, all paint colours will show up on the cammo's or black recballers wear, and therfore make marshall's jobs much easier than looking for yellow paint on a yellow jersey
anyway some of us recballers ARE failed army types, and have a lot of fun playing silly buggers in the woods! or we dress up as star wars characters, or punks
my basic point is the same as tyger's
both types of players and game exist, with many variations, they all exist and always will, or at least they should be allowed to
