Hi all

Im from the UWE club and we are all excited about the up coming torny. But ive got a question which might sound odd at first but hear me out. What is everyone warring to this thing? We are only a small club and have only ever done recball so have borrowed overalls so we dont have paintball tops or anyrhing just jeans, t shirts and jumpers etc. Any advice would be great as well as tips on where to get this sort of stuff on the cheap.
Thanks

There are rules limiting the number/type of layers you can wear, to stop people padding themselves out to try and get the balls to bounce off. See what i posted earlier.

bottom half should be ok in tracksuit or jeans. Top half, a uni t-shirt over a long sleave t-shirt should be ok, or t-shirt and uni rugby top. I'd discourage camo, as its not that sort of paintball. If you can get hold of some iron on printer paper and some t-shirts you could do your club logo on the front and your names on the back. Names would help for photos as well

Steve just to let you no NPF have had some problems with there finance guy being away so the invoices havn't actually been sent out yet. i think there going to fax our but without an invoice we cant get funding. So im unsure on that deadline,

 

[Ginja]

right UEA have booked in one team, am going to book the other team in later today

So Steve, has the last Uni confirmed? Thats all 12 places gone now, or did they pull out?

 

[Steve Hancock]

Nope, East-Anglia haven't been able to enter a B team yet, so the 12th place is still open. If anyone wants the 12th place they need to let me know asap.

The 11 confirmed teams are:

Aberdeen
Birmingham A
Birmingham B
Coventry
East-Anglia
Kent
Portsmouth A
Portsmouth B
Teesside
Southampton
Western England

UEA decided against the 2nd team, had transport issues and have a paintball event this weekend aswell so no one has cash

Hey, do you need any marshalls for the event? Have a couple of lads that would be happy to do it. All with international tourny marshalling experience. Tried PM'ing but havent had a reply.

Steve??

 

[Maddogwhitey]

this looks really good, its been discussed on the aberdeen uni forum (abdn.ac.uk/~src350) but i dint realise it was so big...wow.

Mark do we still need one more player for our B team?...
