The best way is to go to your local site and see if they have a site team if not then find out where the nearest tourny site is and contact them to see if they will let you train with them they most likely will. I think that the nearest tourney would be the dartford 7s i'll ask about for you and i'll post any info i fine out good luck Ghandi.

OK, let's break this down for you a little bit...

In your area, the opportunities open to you are...

NSPL Academy - This is a low cost series of sup'air paintballing days which cater for newcomers, established players, and those peeps looking to grind out a bit of X-Ball in between events. It is based at UCZ - 8 miles from Torquay.

Proto KotH - (King of the Hill) This is a five-man tournament series which is specifically designed to enable newcomers to try out competition paintball with the minimum amount of fuss. It is good value for money, tournament-grade equipment (Proto Matrix gats, Axis goggles and Proto clothing) is available to loan at no extra cost, and these events have a newcomers-only (or Rookie) division. These are based all over the SW, but are frequently at UCZ too.

NSPL - (The NatWest Southern Paintball League) This is the premier 7-Man tournament series in the South of the UK with 4 divisions and events in Bristol, Reading and the SE. This is where you should be aiming for initially.

And there's more, but that will do you for now. Here's the good part... the company that organises ALL of this are also based at UCZ just 8 miles from your front door. Call us, email us, pm us or come in and visit us and we will have all the answers you need.

Finally, we also have a walk-in shop at the same location so you can come along and check out all the latest kit first hand. If you ever need anything, we're just a short distance away from you. Most 'ballers would kill for service like that.
