    Hey finchy, unfortunitly for you. a couple teams this year were using novice and rookie players. im not sure which ones but a few were. so there will be no begginer bracket next year(if u were planning on starting then or will be) so it is up to rookie. anyways

    Try just going to walk ons. meet some people get some friends amongst the paintball community. but usually on a team thing you want to have some what of an "application"
    What you shoot
    Wehere you live
    When u can practise etc...etc.... but usually within about 10minutes not even of EP someone with more knowledge than I will help u out. but this is what i can offer for u

    well since you went their im most likely takeing my team to sept storm and nov ice assumeing their 3 man teams. and also wont it be realy hard for us and the rest of the teams in the begginer bracket? The only advantage i see is playing with a bunch of great guys/gals and also getting alot better as you play harder opponents.

    No prob duby good to see you back online. Finchy000, november ice and september storm are 5 man events I believe. Double check as you may need 2 more players. Good luck in the tourny's and have a great one.

    An extra is always good. My teammate broke his finger on the weekend, was kinda interesting seeing him rock the timmi with 1 finger (thats dedication). If that had happened before the tourny (a week or so) we wouldn't have had an extra to fill in, as it is I hope it will be fully healed before storm.

    not sure if you meant me but anyways i have me and my brother for sure. My friend is thinking about upgradeing to a better marker so he might be in that makes 3. i have 3 other friends who are maybes. so its like 3 for sure. most likley 4

    EDIT: if anyone was thinking of joining a team just post up and we can talk. now im telling you now me and my friends are not the best you can find but we are a bunch of rag tag paintballers. if your wondering why im joining a torney its because we just started likeing speedball and have been going once a week. anyways we are playing just because we love this game and it is real fun to play. so if you arnt the best and just wanna play and have alot of fun then post up.
