Paintball Lessons

[gmore70]

As some of you may already know, there is a group of us trying to promote the idea of paintball lessons.

We received a great boast from Social Paintball as they have now published our stuff.

If its okay with the admin here, I would also like to add, they have published a online lessons directory.

Isn't this essentially what Clinics are?

No, not really. The vlog is about how to take new or novice players and teach them how to play. At this time, most clinics are short term events run by pro players to make existing players better.

If you watch the video, it talks about how to answer parents questions for kids who want to play. Clinics, at this time, do offer that.

Finally, there are a few places that offer real lessons for beginners, but they are hard to find. That is why we have put up an online lessons directory so for those that do offer lessons...or clinics ... they can post it on Socials website so that parents and kids can find them and attend.

Oh and...I love your avatar...I would love to know more about it.

Fair comment, I guess the lessons would be easily transferable to the varying styles of paintball play. rather than clinics being limited to Tournament play.

as to the avatar, I designed it as part of a Disabled Paintball "campaign" i'm trying to do, along with a new team "Unlimited" made up of disabled players.
The avatar is available to buy as a rubber badge from Patch werk.

Yes, it has to be transferrable. A group of us...more others than me to be honest...are trying to make a good solid lessons plan.

Disabled Paintball...AWESOME!!!! So cool. When I was doing my Outdoor Recreation Management at Capilano University (funny name, its Canadian) we did a whole ton of stuff on accessible recreation. It was so inspiring, I spent a few years working as a rec worker at a "group" home. Please please, do keep me in the loop, I would love to see that...cool!

Edit...I just followed you so I can keep up with what you are doing.

cool the more the merrier, so far it's a slow build up, but we've got the foundings of a team (Team Unlimited) and some fantastic sponsors and supporters, now we just need to get playing and working out how to even the playing fields slightly.
