the biggest hurdle for your first tournament is nerves. my first tournament in six years was also the one of my teammates first tournaments. we let nerves get the best of us and lost our first three games but made a comeback and made it past the prelims. If not for nerves at the start we would have finished a lot better.

Oh man, I remember my first tournament. It was a 3-man beginner at our home field. My best friend and I and the captains girlfriend made up our team. She got out off the break almost every game. Though, we never lost a game. My buddy and I 2v3'd each team and took our very first tournament. Oh man did it feel great!

my first tournament was at Baylor SCCC #1 this year in Texas. and it was POURING. looked like galveston honestly, it was so much fun. if you are looking at playing tourney ball and your not sure, GO FOR IT! it is some of the most fun you will have in this sport!

Local tournaments, usually 3 v 3. But Division 5 is the lowest division.

You don't split the paint fairly, you split the cost of the whole team's paint evenly, and the players that need more paint to play their position properly just get more paint.
