Well this is the post that I think some of you were very anxious to see. First and foremost I believe that I should clear up on some stuff. Number one, tryouts went very, very well, everyone played on a new layout that, as far as I know, worked out well and is a big improvement in making sure that the players are bumping up. Number two, everyone played well, we had a total of 10 people and at least 2-3 more guys are interested in playing but could not come. So on a positive note we will more than likely be forming two teams when tournament time come, assuming that there is enough willing, stable players to do so.

However, we will have only one guaranteed team of 7-8 players and that means that not all 4 of you guys will be on it. Now if you did not get chosen it is not because you completely suck and therefore cannot play with us, in fact its quite different. Practices will be held everyother week, so hopefully our first practice will be on August 22nd, and we encourage every person interested in playing tournaments to show up. The more you play the more experince you get and the more experince you have the better you play, thats generally the way things work in paintball. Also if you did not make the guaranteed team dont think that you cant be on it later. As a member of the team we expect consistant results, that means coming to practice ready to play, being able to afford to practice, and of course coming to the practices. If you cant come to the practices your letting the team down, and unforchunately we cant have that. The two people that we (Thomas, AJ, DJ, Steve, Pat, and myself) have chosen are Kyle and Shaun. Remember that your position as team members relies on your ablity to come to practices and play, if you feel that you cannot do this then feel no shame in sending me a message. Dylan and Mason, you guys play well and we would love for you to come out and practice with us. When tournament season starts up we will hope that you decide to play with the second team, and maybe, depending upon your improvement in skill and how consistance you are with attending practices, play on the first team.

Once again, everyone played very well and we hope to see everyone, those who made the team and those who did not, to come out and practice.

well like donnie said were looking to form a second team with the additional players we look to be picking up. just keep on coming out and playing with us bring other speedballers things will start to fall in place.

egobio get yourself some more gear sell off the old so you have money for paint and keep on coming out and playing. were not trying to be nice by offering for yall to come out and play, we want you to come out and be on that field every weekend playing because that is how you get better.

egoboi: the only problem I have with that is, I don't want to have to feel like I owe someone for something. I want to be able to earn my keep and not have to use someone else to do it. Sponsorships? Cool. I hope you understand where I'm coming from. I'm sure everyone else feels the same. And don't completely throw out the option of joining the team. I saw some potential on you. You just need the right conditioning and training. I know I suck and don't have much room to talk, but hey. Don't hit it and quit it. lmao.
