Well supposedly there are team practices that people can just join in on but the last few times the teams just want to run very limited paint drills and don't want to play any games.
If there are 3 guys (or more) that would like to go down and havea few 3 on 3 games (more if there are more people) post up.
As much fun as it is with 3 people its not.
730ish and go till wheneva you wana go home. For those of us that we need paintball to survive (and wana get better) help us out :)

Um, waylander. I'm not exactly sure what you're idea of "team practices" are but just playing games does not really teach you that much. If you break the game down into sections, breakout, mid game, finishing up, etc and limit the paint (cause not many of us are millionaires) then you can work on specifics in your game with quick repitition.

Your right Lunty,
The reason that I say team practices is because when I was introduced to these wed night things I was told they were team practices...so i am just reiterating what was told to me.
These are in no way, ok everyone line up were doing breakouts and things. they are more just friendly games that is not so much about winning but refining technique as not many things are taught as such.
For me its just more knowledgeable people telling me what i'm doing wrong and how to improve and and me just going out in a game situation and practicing that skill.
Generally the Chronic guys and Sinister are there but I'm not sure if its every wednesday or every second wednesday or whenever they feel like it. As with many things in paintball its a little bit hit or miss who will show up unfortunately.
I know that Menace will be stepping up our training and will be keen to play against large groups of around 10 + to simulate playing in Australia :wink:

We use to work on the theory that each aussie player = 1.25 - 1.5 actual players.
So in 5 man (XBALL) - you've got to shoot 6 - 7 people each point and in 7 man you need to shoot 8 - 10 people :)

Will be very keen to do more drills i.e. Snap shooting, Running gunning before playing a couple of games... I have a couple that I have been taught....
But would be even more keen for one of the more experienced players to teach us a thing or three... Any takers?
Cheers
P.S. more fun getting shot by them waylander :lol: :lol:
If any of the Menace guys are there we're always willing to help out and pass on whatever we know, even if we're not actually training ourselves we can still give you some tips. Also Newman is the new resident pro from America (played for LTZ) and I'm sure he'd be keen for a run around any time.
