Help me

I am making a presentation to give to my principal. im trying to get a school paintball team. I know that it is unlikely, but it is worth a try. I need things like actual tests and things to prove how safe paintball is. I heard that it is safer than golf but I don't remember where. I also need the cost of building two or three 5-man fields with netting. I can get the bunkers for free from a contruction company that my dad works for. Any useful information that anybody has would be great. My email address is blitzmercenary@backpacker.com and my friends is dspaur316@aol.com. Make the title "Paintball Info." I was thinking about going to local companies to get sponsorships for paint. First Strike is from my area and they might help. Email the websites where you find the info.
Thanks

ok, start small, get some support from teachers and other student... i am trying to start a paintball club at my school cause im am almost positive a paintball team wouldnt fly. Mabye once the club gets off the ground. Any ways get a petition, show that many people do play. try to get at least 20 people who say they will join if formed and get them to sign something. also try to back that with teachers. they dont have to play just to say that they dont disapprove of the idea. Sponsor ship amy actually be easier if you trying to get a school team. get this, you pass out buisness cards and such to every one in your class and they give you paint and money :). thats really all i got, it sounds like what your planning takes time, dont rush it. GOOD LUCK! tell us all what happens. Sorry i dont know any statistic sights.

Tell them, School's have hockey teams......and in hockey fighting is part of the game...... And be like in paintball most injuries are minor scrapes and bruises.....look at football or something which people have career and even life threatening injuries.......
