im going to japan very soon and i was wondering, any fields over there? and military fields would be cool too because im a us citizen cause shooting at 177 fps couldnt possibly be that fun. thanks!

Hi there. Where are you going to be in Japan. I live in Mie-ken and have a team. We play on the local field with a semi-pro team. Yeah, the 177fps is lame but sometimes we forget it. And the military fields can be far away. I live 5 hours away from it but the local field has great people and it`s great. We are having a pball party tonight and watching the NPPL live. We have a games tomorrow and a clinic on Monday. Lots to do. Well, got to drink. Ciao. Drop me a line.

177 isn't as bad as it sounds. Given the smaller field sizes you'll find in Japan, it allows for more interesting games. Also, 177 means it doesn't hurt as much, so we get a much higher percentage of female players than we would at 300 fps (though my wife thinks 177 is wimpy).

The SPLASH field http://www.goodpaintball.com/ will be having tournaments this month (rental division) and in August (Open division, full auto OK) Come check it out.

I did not know paintball is popular enougth in japan to have its own league. I am very excited to see the sport reach other places in the world.

Paintball here in Japan isnt as big or popular as it could be due to the local laws restricting paintball, even on military bases the rules and laws restrict paintball so that it barely survives...

We got some ballers out here. Yall are all welcome to come down and ball, we are always looking for new faces to mow. Unfortunatley I am a baller on a budget so I will not get a chance to ball anywhere else.
