This might seem like an obvious question to some but it's kind of a conundrum to me. People say that before you go to competitions you should go train with a team, but... uh... where does this happen? I mean, you can't just wonder out into a field and start shooting each other. Pretty much every time you want to fire your marker it needs a venue to make it legal right? How does this work?

So again it's venues rather than some player's private property or something. How much do they generally charge for a team to train there?

Bricketwood charges £15 per player for the day to use the field.

Most of the time , its a team booking but yorkie usually puts a spot on for lone wolfs to turn up to make a scratch team.

Usually £15 green fee per player for the day and typically £20 for each box of paint you buy :)


if you say where abouts in the country you are people might be able to tell you nearest venue.

Yorkie sells £25 for training paint which is good for team training.

Tournament is different to rec ball.

There is alot happening down at bricketwood this weekend, why dont you pop down and see what it is all about.

I'd love to, but I'm already planning to go to my local field where there's a walk-on day on Saturday, then Sunday I'm just busy all day. I'm hoping to get an idea of what it's all about there, and most importantly whether I'm actually going to be able to afford playing. If it works out around £40 a day for venue, paint, and air and I'm only going once a month or so, looks pretty managable.
