I agree with a National Leauge, with north,midland and south legs. Feeding into a end of season final.

Isnt that what was being suggested?

The problem is always going to be the cost, and time for each player.
At the moment we play in 1 tourny and one practice a month, and this takes up 2 days of my life, and costs up to £100 per month.
If we go and have a overnighter its more.
I dont know about everyone else, but my domestic situation means i can not spare much more time or cash!!

The "local" events, can take us up to 3hrs to get there, then we play all day and have to return home.
How many teams that play in the Series2003 and M/M play in the Millenium events? And could anyone afford to play Xball?

I dont see how you can make the "premier" leauge thing work, as that means more time and cost to each player.

Look at the top teams in each league, they enter every thing going and train the rest of the time. These players are already seriously commited to the sport. Yes it may mean extra travelling to some tournaments for them, but remember a premier league and teams within are likely to get better sponsorship deals and other benefits as they will be recognised as the countries elite.
Remember these are the teams who already travel to europe etc to play.

Premiere league

All the suggestions that I have made were based on the assumptions that it need only be affordable/possible/attractive to the TOP teams. I really only mean those who regularly look at finishing at the top end of the top divisions.

I do not see my team playing this, I really am talking about those teams who mostly play mileniums etc

I like it!!

Chocolate biscuits and paintball - good combination.

I only had one biscuit - honestly - several prawn sandwiches.

I am sure whatever went on in Cannock will be common knowledge soon - and I think most will like it!!!!!!!!!!! Can't say anymore but I am sure someone will soon.

Sorry M8, if you had been reading some of the other threads last week you would have known that something was afoot.

If you re-read this thread any mention of biscuits and/or sandwiches alludes to a meeting held in Stafford last week, possibly regarding this exact subject.

This thread came from my posted reply to the standard of play thread and are my views on the future of paintball. As a rookie to tournament play, i don't know much about structure of paintball outside the rec ball scene. But as a player of American Football for 17 years in the UK and being able to think does give me a little insight.

You should be flattered! Great minds think alike and all that!
