mike do you want the people on the list for the first psp event to still pre-register?

[BIG T25]

Well I, along with a few of my friends that I have tried out with, am only interested in the local team thing for now and can't play any PSP until the 09 season.

I am confused about what is going on with the local teams as of now. Originally it sounded like there was going to be 2, but now I'm not sure. I am willing to tryout if it is going to be at all worthwhile for me (if I'm not even eligible for the local team, then I'd rather save my money).

We're still planning on making a few local teams... The thing is, is that we have fairly limited field time at AAPP and before the first PSP event. Because we have such little time at AAPP we make sure each time we go we're playing against a respectable Xball team, and it would be unfair to the local guys to have to drive out there and play against these well-established national Xball teams. Plus, we only have 7 more weeks before the event... We need all the field time we can get before then, and taking 5 teams will make that difficult.

Everyone that had tried out but not listed can earn a spot on a local team. Now that most of the national players have been sorted out (with the exception of a few boader line players not on the list and several others that will make the national team with a little help and practice after the first event) we can focus on building a local army.

SO if you are hoping to play for TPA in 2008 I strongly suggest you PRE-REGISTER while you still have time. The sad thing about many paintball players is that they are here today gone tomorrow (not because we cut them but they are just paintball players). Show some dedication and see what you can accomplish.

Ok, that answered my question. Hopefully I can make it out on sunday for the tryout thing.

hey guys i need a ride to AAPP on the 20th. Check the TPA forum ofr my info and all that good stuff

Due to having less than 10 people trying out we will not hold tryouts Jan 20th. Sorry for the late notice but I was giving people till the last minute to pre-register. I will arrange others tryouts before spring for those of you still looking to tryout. I will have some tryouts March at our field (I will do my best to have atleast one in Feb at AAPP or Paintball World) I recommend practicing as much as possible from now till then though.

We will instead run x-ball matches 1-6pm Sun Jan 20th . MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR 20 PODS!!!!!!!!! $85 CASH (exact change please) is to be PAID TO ME along with your waiver.

Those few players trying out for the D2 team are still invited to this tryout (as we are still short a couple experienced D2 players for this event). EVEYONE MUST be ready to play by 1pm (included paint carried to the field, paint podded, chrono under 285, walked fields, paid me, and filled out waiver, etc.) I would suggest you be there 11:30 to make sure you are ready.
