5 man novice team...where to start?

[bobjim]

Yeap I got a good 3 man together and we are just now setting up a local hyperball field up for practice and local play. We will be having a few tourneys to prepare but as of next years summer for sure I would like to have a 5 man team together. What would be the closest and best even for us to start at? We have thought about maybe going to philly maybe but we really don't know. :sailor:

If you plan on traveling to play at BIG tournaments, then do this...

join local tournaments and play as amature... it will give you a lot of practice and you'll get use to how better players play. Anotehr thing... get to know good players and ALWAYS play with them. you dont get any better playing people who just dont know how to play. You can and should also research for tips and strats from paintball sites and try them on the field. Tip: when you are about to play, have a plan on what your going to do before hand.

Start local and get good. The best thing for you right now is to do good in the local scene. Then think about going to big events. You want to have a decent team that plays well together before entering national events. Practice, Practice, Practice...
