Example: Shoot the Rainbow, its going to cost at Approx £150.00 per person for the event and then add travailing cost for a single person in a car to and from the event (North East) its going to amount to at least £200.00 +. That’s one hell of an expensive weekend.
just another note

after doing campaign cup
that weekend cost me £600 notes
i don`t winge about the price i just pay it
i love the sport and what ever it costs then i will pay it:)

This is a expensive sport.

No one try's to hide that fact.

If you start and add up the cost of a top range marker, hopper, airsystem and the mask, gloves and team top. You are looking at over £1000.

You only pay that, if you love the sport.

I agree we should have more tournys further North, but you need northern site's to host them. If its not in the site's interest, you can not expect them to host an event. Maybe now that T.V. is starting to get interested, it might be worth while for more site's to get exposure by hosting an event? only time will tell.

As the sport gets bigger, they must come a time when we split into North/South/East/West divisions, and then come together in an end of season Final. But until then, you will have to travel.

Just my 2p worth.

Just my thoughts

Tactical Mayhem----- Stick to drinking stella and whiskey !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Paintball has never been as cheap as it is now. OK markers are expensive but you are paying for technology and innovation but paint has never been as cheap as it is now!!


I am sure this is not what you wanted to here but as a site owner you have no idea of the expenses incured running a site.

Not drinking and sober:D :D
