New to the area looking for team

I recently moved to the dupage area. I played recreational speed ball and woods ball in the past. Im 27 quick and willing to learn looking for a team that teaches. With it being that time of the season I want to get back into it. Im looking for a casual competitive group who take it seriousness enough to win but realize its still a game. Im very laid back and friendly can travel to practice. Its easy to either email me or im on facebook message me at jiu_jitsu_phil_85@yahoo.com

I know that there are a bunch of guys at Ohare paintball park looking to start a team. They play every Thursday, I would come by and play and talk to them.

I know that there is always room on Sundays at Painball Explosion.
They have several teams that practice there.
They can teach you a lot and when the next season roles around, they will start rolling out tryouts

We have a solid group that plays out of fox paintball in millington il. What you described is exactly how our team is; competitive but just want to ball and hang out with the guys. We play a ton of rec ball and scenarios. Fox has a good range of woods, hyperball and xball. If you wanna head out there at some point pm me or hit us up on facebook www.facebook.com/rising.storm.75 its a new formed team and we want to start recruiting for next year.

Once Paintball Explosion gets team practice going again I am looking forward to getting up there. I am not on a team yet. I am a new and have a friend that wants to get a team going.

I just want to get on the course and start getting down speedball and how it works.

I live down in Romeoville. I work in Lisle. So PBE and CPX are right between me.
