Hi

I started Jolt late last year. Wast hard, all you need is some commited players who want to play and have fun. One thing i would say is to have a squad around 10-12 as i have found some people are unreliable. As for sponsership you are unlikely to get any, nt major as you will be starting in the bottom division, so its nomal prices im affraid, but such places as powerball do cheep marbs if you buy in bulk, like £30 a box if you buy 10.And tornies around surrey = Dartford 7's and camopaign cup, are the closest.

Dude, sponsors will come with time, results and sportsmanship.

2004 has seen most leagues go over to 7 man. So first thing you need to do is find another 4 to 7 players. Some of these will drop out before your first tourney.

Check out p8ntball magazine, this will give you an idea of forthcoming events. Also here is a good place to look.

My advice, join a local established team. They can help with training, they may already be sponsored and they will help out with advice etc...

Good luck.

hey myth, i assume your the same myth on the propaintball website/forums. are you playing the march tourny on the 28th in carlisle?

anyway, its bloody hard to start up a new team, i started "deadline" from scratch about 6 months ago. and 2 of my team mates were jobless at the time so they spent a long time using site guns at the local tourny n training. but keep the faith n stick at it;). until last week we were only a 4 man team so dont worry about not havin a full team of regulars all the time. ive had 3 different guys play for me as my 5fth, one from another team, my brother and a m8 who's gone 2 austrailia for a year (jammy bugger)

it'll all work out. and we'll see you soon if ur playing on the 28th
