Is paintball a single persons sport ?
- Thread starter figment
- Start date
I dunno...
... if it necessarily a single persons sport - BUT - it does take one helluva understanding partner.
It does get a little tough when it comes to time away & money spent - most addictions have their drawbacks - why should ours be any different.

I know one of the guys i know called Dan Maskell has terrible trouble making his boyfriend understand why he has to travel and spend huge amounts of money on a sport that he is crap at anyway!
I think Goose has hit the nail on the head
As long as your otherside is understanding then everything should be fine, trying to get your partner into balling (rec day/watch a tounry) is always a good thing and you never know they might start balling too

I think most people find that partners are pretty understanding.
She detested the whole game of paintball after i accidentally shot her on the back of the head
.........Mind u sayin that, she was watching the t.v at the time

Gotta agree with chrisy...
Mine wasn't understanding until she "experienced" tournament ball – eventhough she still thinks I'm a bit nuts (might be for other reasons tho')
Until I finally took her to a Millennium event, all I heard was "You get to go on vacation/holiday all the time, and I don't get to go anywhere".
After the tournament she accompanied me to she understood that it was not really a "vacation".

P.S. Shooting her in the back of the head probably WASN'T the best way to win her over.

having played a high level of football paintball is a walk in the park! i used to have to train tuesday and thursday and travel Saturday to away games and come home late Sunday, then train in the gym monday and wednesday, so my missus is well happy cos she sees me loads now!! not saying that i prefer this lifestyle tho! but you cant have it both ways i suppose!
but you cant have it both ways i suppose!
I think all the ugly ducklings partners should be even less understanding and keep them indoors........so they cant whip us off the field anymore
Got 4 kids (girls) and one hell of an understanding lady, if only i can get her to play then i got me self a 5 man girls team, then maybe they will understand why they need to get me a marker for everday of the week
