Facts about my field

It seems there is a little confusion about what is going on at my field so I wanted to post this to clear it up.

1. I am currently renting that house and the property where the field is setup. I don't own it and therefore it is even more important that it is kept clean.

2. I don't own the bunkers! One of the fields belongs to BJ and the other belongs to someone I don't even know but has been nice enough to bring down. So give them a big thank you and if they are not taken care of there will be no field to play on.

3. I like to win so in order to win as a paintball team you need to practice, practice and then practice A LOT MORE! This field is for team practice not recball. More importantly it's preparatory practice for major tournaments (PSP, NPPL, XPSL) so the field will be formatted to whatever tournament is coming up.

4. In order to accomplish #3 teams need to keep costs as low as possible. The field is BYOP & Air. Kevin from Ballistic Paintball Supply has been VERY generous in bringing down paint for those who need it for a great price of $30/case. That is completely his deal, I don't make any money off of it and at that price I doubt he does either so that is very nice of him to do and be sure to thank him for it. I've been asking teams to bring as much air as they can so everyone has some. If you don't bring any air then ask around but do the right thing and offer a couple bucks to tap off on someone elses and they should do the right thing and let you. But again bring your own if you possibly can.

5. Going along with #3 there is no charge to play. All I ask is clean up your trash and help either setup, takedown, and if you have the time both.

6.Permission to play: Any team that can compete, is willing to clean up or set up, can watch their language around my daughters that are running around, and will respect everyone there, has permission to play. I will try and post sign ups each week when the field will be set up and teams can announce that they are coming. If you are an individual looking for pick up games, I'm not saying you can't come and watch or maybe throw a team together but you might be better off going to a regular field. I'm sorry if that bothers people but the reason I'm doing this is to get the Utah TEAMS on podiums not to just provide a place to play.

I hope this helps clarify things and if you have any questions feel free to PM me and I'll be happy to help you out.


Tim

Its a blast guys... The clean up is so easy if everyone pitches in and helps. Not to mention you get to practice outside, in the sun, or what ever the weather is...and there is no restrictions on practicing as a team. That way you all get better at playing together. Thanks for all you do Tim. Also this paint shoots great, you do get a few bounces however its not breaking in markers or barrels so for the price its worth it.
