Pre-Rookie event

Just wanted to give Allen and his crew and the reffing crew a big thumbs up for another great event. And a congratulations to ALL of the teams who competed in the pre-rookie event. Hopefully we can continue this next season. Thanks Allen for all you do for Utah's paintball tournament scene.

finals played in the dark

yes i had a great time also. the only thing that i realy didn't like was the fact that the finals were played in the dark. all we could do was just shoot at bunkers and hope that we hit somebody. were talking 8:00 o'clock at night. we could not see what we were shooting at. even the refs could not see what was going on. the finals were all based on luck, we were all on our honor system. which isn't bad, but it leaves room for alot. it would have been better to have the finals on saturday. but i do somewhat understand why we didn't. we just couldn't see. i would like to thank allen for putting on an awsome event and creating a good way to introduce teams to the uxpl for next year. i know i'll be there, as long as i don't have to play finals in the dark again.

I also had a problem with playing the finals at dark, but with time and weather not really coming together there where not many choices. It was still a good learning experince for me.
Thanks Allan for a great tournament.

Allen much props guy. You and your crew of refs were great to work with in helping understand rules and game formates. even playing in the dark was fun. that includes the Judd bunker shot. THANKS AGAIN FOR A GREAT WEEKEND!

playing in the dark was kind of fun i thought, i hadn't ever done it before. it definatly brought a new and interesting challange to the game. and sorry to your whole team on the bunker shots wiley, it was hard to aim for the pod packs in the dark lol. but never the less a great event and thank you to all. I only had one bad ref call but no worries, it was a blast and i'm looking forward to doing it again!
