My fieldowner was talking about this last summer, sounds like I'll grab a couple buddies from another team and get on it!

Unfortunately I'm one of 2 people at my high school that actually plays airball (or paintball at all really).

This sounds like an awesome program though!

You can always grab a woodsball guy and teach them to build your team and grow the sport.

Here's something I'm wondering, are joint high school teams allowed or only teams from one highschool?

All the players have to be from the same high school, with the exception of home schooled and private schooled students...

We had zero teams play last year and 2 teams the year before that, so just didn't seem like the demand was there.

No, private high school kids can team up with kids from the high school that they would geographically go to, if they did not choose to go to private school instead.

Each event's paint and price is decided by the host field.

Truth. Private school kids have two options:
1. play with other players from their private school
Or
2. Play with players from the public school he is zoned for.

ya unfortunetly chris is right it would be very hard to put together a viable team here in MN if you can only play with people from your own school

like BurningPlaydoh said no one else play tournament style paintball at my school and i have a few woodsballers that play a few times a year

it is however sweet to see this, and please keep up the good work tchalien and stay with this as it grows in the future

Love the NCPA! Won my region back in high school and enjoyed going to Nationals. Ironically, I got a Drexel Paintball shirt from the Drexel team before I even went there

It's 3-man. That's you and two other people who can pull a trigger. Very, very easy to put together.

You may be getting tripped up on the word "viable" - sure, if you're looking to put together a team of three D2 players, you're not going to be able to do that - but that's the point. Every other team has the same restriction, so now your team of you and two kids you know who play rec ball is a viable team.

Get out there and get some new people playing paintball and have some fun!

Paintball News Rules
  1. No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
  2. Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
  3. If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
  4. Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
