yeah I had a really good time, despite taking half hour to find my bloody team, who being the outcasts they are, are sitting out in the friggin car park..

 

[Andy-RPS_Viper]

Well put Sparkie

 

[Walker (Nitro)]

Well done Blakey on yet another cracker!.... a few niggles though:

Marshalls on field 4 (apart from andy + preston) needed a good kick up the arse to check people (my voice has gone from so much screaming and shouting from one game) and or a new pair of varifocals

A certain incident with a certain div b team (on field 4)... you know who you are, you know what you did, i know what you did and i wont forget it.

Netting needed to be higher as one of my teamates got smacked on the forehead by a stray ball by the just paintball tent.

Marshalls are cracking down on the rules which is good to see but a little too power crazy, the smallest things seemed to incur the toughest penalties......

Otherwise excellent.....

outcasts?!?!? we were enjoying the sun

have to agree with walker on the netting....no so much the sides but at the end where everyone was congregating to look at different stands coulda been a little better ah well

Blinding tourney tho specially for our new kids :

on a personal note...well done walker today played well....very impressed hehe

Field five should have been netted. Thanks for the chance to test fire markers at the chrono tent.
The rest is history
Top Tourney etc.

 

[Silentbob]

I think the karting should be banned

I had zero adrenaline or aggression left for the Round

Cheers to everyone who made that a top event (including the weather)

See ya @ R5

As to the hieght of the netting, how high do you think the netting has to be to prevent a stray shot like that. It is not possible to unless you wish to put a net roof on the arena, The fact that field 5 was not netted is a serious concern because, you are relying on players watching to tell non playing spectators that they can't watch their friends play on fields 2 & 4 because there is no protection around field 5.

It wasn't one stray shot - there were lots coming over every time players broke out.
That said I know Blakey and the team take all suggestions on board and this won't happen again.
Field 5 was a goggles only area so I can't really see the problem.
Grat event though - loads of fun
