Why not? if your serious about playing then surely playing pro would be the place to go, or head towards.

exactly........head towards. Great if you get there. Otherwise, don't hang all of your hopes on it. Aim to be as good as you can be.........if that makes you pro-material, then fine.

At the moment we are based at yorkies training grounds, tourni park up near romford. As for discounts and stuff i leave that to the older guys, i just go train and whenever possible use my training regime of L and R handed snap shooting, running shooting and all the rest of it. It some time gets crowded up there, so we find it at times difficult to perform these drills but we get by :)

cool, you need support when you are starting out. Still bloody expensive though :)
Want to try for a novice team practice tourney?
Got to be lots of newbie teams around? hire a site in the middle of the country and just play as many games as we can in a day?

Sorry thats what we are trying to get away from GAMES
You can learn so much more using a case of paint and training, and practicing a certain skill. As oppose to shooting a case at ppl all day. Great offer, but no thanks :)

??????? if you haven't played a tourney....then how many games have you played?
I'm suggesting a full days play.......not just the 8 games you'd play in a tourney, against teams of a similar level. Lots of games, lots of breakouts...... it doesn't stop you training, it's something extra. Playing games lets you practice communication and combine your skills.

Sorry dude, maybe i said it wrongly. We havnt played together as a team against many people. Me, my bruv and a couple of others have played tourni. Me and my bruv have played together in UK Marshall's and have played in Storm UK. We know games dont help in training as much as what drills do, thats why we are doing them.
Hope that clears it up :confused: :)

Yes, but this wasn't a suggestion to stop training. It was to something extra. I thought by your desire to play in bottom divisions that the whole team was new to tourny.
