Adventure Paintball will again be running a 5 round tournament series every second Sunday from 23 Aug 09. This is a 3 man comp so you only need yourself and 2 mates to play. No experience necessary as this is aimed at Novice players who want to try something new. There is a division for more experienced players for those who want a challenge.

There will be round prizes and overall series prize of 3 new electronic markers.

Just need to organise a team of 3 and let Kieran know you are interested.

This is meant to be a fun day and not too serious. 16 year olds and above are welcome to come and play.

Give me ring after 6pm any night on 6262 4242 if you want more details.

I would recommend that anyone who is interested in playing paintball, head out and particiapte in atleast one round of the Adventure Spring Series. As Kieran mentioned, it is meant to be a fun day and is a good introduction to tournament style paintball on a Sup’ Air field.

I’d only played normal paintball a couple of times before playing in the Summer Series earlier this year, however the Referees were more than happy to give us a complete run down of the rules and objectives, provide a heap of tips after each game, and answer any other questions we had.

It is also a good tournament for anyone who interested in getting into paintball more seriously, as participation in atleast 4 rounds of the series will mean that you have met one of criteria required for the private ownership of a paintball marker (gun).

If you are interested in playing, but can’t get enough people together to make a team, have a look at http://www.pbchat.com.au/index.php?showforum=88 to recruit more players.

Price?

Team entry for your 3 man team is $150. That includes all basic equipment (goggles and gun)and extra gas etc. As a team event, you all wear a ‘team uniform’ which is normally everyone in the same footy jumper or t shirt.

Paint costs between $90 and $100 for a box of 2000 depending on the grade of paint. Most teams go through between 1 and 2 boxes of paint.

Prizes go down to 3rd place and all team results go towards the series prize of the new markers.

Price?

Are mixed teams allowed to enter?

Everyone is welcome. In the past we have had all girl teams! Girls make excellent paintball players as they tend to be more tactical than aggressive…

Are mixed teams allowed to enter?

“ouch” that hurts
