How does it work in the pioneering Scandinavian section Magued?
This is how it works in Oslo, Norway:
You sign up for a membership for 1 year. The price is aproxx. 50£ pr. month.
(- The one year thing would probably create some debate here, but in Oslo the main reason is that the reball-center is located close to city-center, have easy acces by car & public transportation. This probably makes a high monthly rental, and the owner wants to assure the income.)
Yoy could also have drop in, but i don`t know the price.
Playing:
They have to fields, one for rental and one for members.
They are maybe 15 X 25 meters each.
- In both ends of the fields there is a big box with reballs, and you just play till it`s empty. I believe they have a total of maybe 30.000 reballs.
Then the players clean the floor for balls, and wash & dry them.
Then you go again and again and again
It`s perfect for drills, and i can promise you that you will feel pretty pumped after you do a drill like running & shooting for like 30 times without a break.
And you dont have to worry about cleaning your goggles or barrel
For most of you it will make a lot of impact to your skills, and those who pay for their paint, will probably have more money to spend on shiny new stuff to your marker
We have been practicing reball since the beginning of the year and i belive it has given us a lot. During summer we also use it, either because its pooring down outside or just to hang out with our friends and do some drills to improve our personal technique.
Good luck to all of you.
