It's in between San Jose and San Mateo right off of 280, I pass it all the time on my way to work in Sunnyvale from Daly City.

Yeah ALMOST, Kick you can contact Siva too! he's on the rec team as well, as far as I know there are no open spots on three 5-man tourney teams we currently have. Hey Siva you missed a great field on Sat, it was hot but we got a good work out. Wish us luck on sun for Best of the West.

i think those fields might be a little too far from me. I usually play at T.A.G. I was going to join the road to aruba 3-man feeder tourney at oroville but one of my teammates couldn't make it. I live in san jose. I think modesto is about 2 or 3 hrs from here.

Yeah it's a drive for us too (2 hour for us too, we have to leave @ 6am), but it's a great tourney field. sometimes some of us will go to TAG but some of the guys ref at Sherwood so we tend to go there more often

yeah just about 2 hours from here too. I checked out the site. Some good looking fields there. Is sherwood near tag? Which one is better? I want to try out a new field

I've been to TAG and it's ok, but I like Sherwwod better. TAG has a sweet speedball course, but I think that Modesto's is way better in terms of tourney courses. TAG has FREE hot dogs though and I know that they are looking to expand and make more speedball fields

I Kick YoU

Yeah if you haven't been there recently, they changed the speedball field a little. There's sort of an X in the middle of the field and it's set up a lot better than it used to be.

There are 3 other fields that they usually play capture the flag on.

I'm pretty sure that they're expanding and building a hyperball field and also putting in a sup-air field. The refs there are friendly but they can get on your case if you break the safetly rules.

a decent size resting area with about 6 or 8 picnic tables with a tarp over them for shade And FREE hotdogs : )

do any of you have a link to the sherwood site (if they have one)? Or the exact address so I can look it up on mapquest?

It's in American Canyon the city North of Vallejo and 10 mins from Marine World. I believe the website is www.paintballforest.com it's about an hour and a half from San Jose, it's right next door (literally) to Carpet Bob's Jungle.

The Speedball field at TAG is modeled after a speedball field at SC Village... in fact, you can hit the center X right off of the break if you do it right. TAG is also building 4 new fields in the back

Yeah I always go to the x with my friend. It's fun tearin it up there. When will the 4 new fields be done and will they be open to everyone? I heard that they would only be open to sponsored players for practice.

I think that the owner will play some rec, but that field is meant for sponsored teams practice. He is looking to get his field up for a possible tournies like PanAm. I was looking to get my team sponsored by them, but the captain didn't go for it

I'm going this saturday to play at tag and we're going to talk to him about a 3-man team sponsorship. Maybe 5-man if we can find more players. : D can't wait until the fields are done.
