O.k. It's been going on for a while in the top secret depths of the Asylum and we're nearly ready to open the doors!!!

Rumours have been circulating and it's all true.. Asylum with a lot of help from their friends has been building the ultimate, recession busting and weather proof training arena. We've been testing it out for a couple of weeks and smashing heads of an evening to see if this brain child of Rob and his team can actually work... I'm pleased to announce it has and it's awesome..

The idea was put to us to use some of our space for a re-ball arena for teams to train on days off, evenings, winter months and when the weather is poor... It's been developed by people who've played the game at the highest levels to improve you're game.. It's a fantastic way of training drills for nothing but a clean up at the end of you're session!!!

We're still developing the arena and are trying every method in the world of getting the 8 tonnes of astro turf up 4 stories!!? which will make it even better!! At the moment we have hard-board flooring which is excellent for diving, but not ideal...

As a bunch of ex-tournie players we are trying to give people the chance to improve thier game and give enthusiastic rec-ballers a taste of tournament paintball then push them to get them involved in the sport!!

We will be hiring the arena out for up to 8 people at a time in 3 hour sessions, rules and all aspects of health and safety will be policed but basically the area will be yours with re-balls supplied and re-ball sup-air bunkers free to build as you please!! It's an excellent way of doing break out, snap shooting etc. without the heavy price of paint bills!!!

We will be announcing the opening of this as soon as we've done some final tweaking, the main aim is to have everything perfected for the winter months.

Now, after a running a few training sessions i have seen a massive transition from complete and utter newbie to killer in the making.

Young kids, aggressive, quick, enthusiastic, with rediculous amounts of game.

Improving at each and ever session.

It's an exciting time for all of us at the asylum, watching the sport recieve influxes of new, fresh talent coming through it's doors.

Once ready, these little killers will be introduced and given the chance to kick it a nickle in the uk tourney scene.

Once they are through, another team will follow, then another, then another etc...

LOVE IT!!!

OK - I'm in. I have 3 kids all eager and willing to give this a go (I can probably get more as well). They currently go to the NQ newbie days - but they really want more 'between days' training (and need it ;)).

Now, for the obvious question - how much and when?

O.k. It's still in the developement stages, but we have taken the local brats in and tested the water...

These kids had never shot a marker before and now after 10 hrs of training their all playing left and right handed, mugging, breaking out properly and learning how to operate as a team, it's unbelievable to watch!!
They're all only 13 and 14 so it really is going to be interesting to see how it all unfolds...

Raffles bring em down and have a look.. There is so much going on behind the scenes and we're constantly developing the place...

We're working on a membership scheme, but right now to keep things simple we're just charging £5 an hour. It's not quite finished yet but if you want to come down and have a look feel free...

We will be running the Re-ball along side the walk-on but the intention is to have it open all day every day for anyone to book in and come sharpen those skills!!

This really is what we need, an all-weather indoor training facility.

The North has been turning out the best players in the UK ball for some years now, and with Ronnie & co. training new young talent, we should soon see some new teams causing some upsets.

A setup like this is like a youth club, giving teenagers something cool to do with their time.

Will do Ronnie :D.

I've shown them your post - and they're even more excited now!

I'm over at the NQ Saturday morning (and working the afternoon - again) - so how about this Sunday for a 'sneak peek'?

cheers
