I all,
Am keen on getting into paintball tourney/speedball (not the war game style) but am a complete newbie to it. Would be on a very modest budget, questions are-where is a good place in Auckland to play tourny style paintball and get a feel for it? and are there stock teams (eg stock co2 marker competions) or are they all hpa etc with the top end gear.
Also am a shift worker so are there any week day events/leagues etc???
Any info appreaciated thanks.

Hi there Little Dog.

Events in Auckland run the gumit from social walk on's in the bush to tourny speed ball. There is an event on almost every
weekend now. the best place to find out if there is a weekday event is to hit up the fields. There should be a post with links below in the North Island/Auckland regon thread. The MilSim side of paintball is MUCH stronger here so most of the events and game days are more that way. There has been talk off and on about stock and pump class games but I haven't seen or heard anything new for some time. 99.9% of speed ball players here are running HPA and electros. Most recenlty the tourny gear bag is dominated by popit guns so ego's, RX Etc...

Thanks Icharus, I have contacted a couple of fields but mostly they are running bush and milsim style. Actions has a few tourney style later in the year I will check out.
thanks again.
