It has? For what reasons?

 

[Robin Hood]

Considering the nature of the players (students) and they're cash flow situation I think semi would be more attractive than ramping. Some uni's might not attend if they can only get a scratch team together that would otherwise gladly attend with semi only markers.

I would probably not waste my time going to a ramping event if I was with a scratch team of uni players who were mainly only capable of shooting semi only guns. I wouldn't introduce freshers to a ramping paintball event on their first go.

Apart from that, great venue, good paint prices and reasonable entry. Should be a good day.

Bad news if it has fizzled out because it directly affects my budget this year, no league = about £500 less!

Tryed to contact Steve but no reponse as of yet (a very busy man though)

Anyone else got any info?

 

[Edd Hobday]

The Inter-Uni is still going ahead. Steves had abit of a rough time of late so things havent moved as quickly as he'd have liked. People should be contacted very soon though.

Here you are, taken from another forum:

Hi Guys, due to the harrowing events of my divorce this summer (involving a day in the cells due to some malicious allegations) things were on hold fo a while. I had hoped to get things going again now that everything has settled down. However work has gotten in the way so I have gotten an assistant who will be doing all the leg work that i've been falling behind with. Everythings in place just need to call round and get everyone on board.

Not sure what is happening but if thats the case sounds like a good idea if the league isn't happening. If there is a space maybe the barbarians could have a priory pick?

 

[Ginja]

can someone update the main uni thread with the information. Did not realise the league was no longer going ahead. Does it look to be that random uni only events will be held attempting to follow the rules that were debated last year?
