Portland State University Paintball?

aperson · 07-13-2008, 01:04 AM

A couple of my friends and I are going to be attending PSU starting next year. We would like to start a campus rec club for students and people in the community that like to play and organize fun/cheap games every now and then. We would also like to possibly compete in local tournaments if there is enough interest from enough people.

If there is already a club at the school like this, information would be great. If not, anyone interested in joining can either post here, PM me, or PM rmb2012 and we will get you more information as soon as we figure out exactly how all of this is going to work.

I beleive there already is a club for paintball

I was visiting PSU as a possible college and I think I remember the guy talking about the Diversity of groups, and he mentioned Paintball lol

So

Yeah I think so lol

i wouldnt mind joining

is there a age limit?

aperson · 07-13-2008, 01:24 AM

if there is already a club that will make this a lot easier. i will make sure i check when i start school in september if not sooner.

im not sure exactly how it will work yet, but i have no problem with people that are not college students playing with us.

sweet i'll have to join this now

i just checked the PSU website and there is no paintball club listed, but it could still be there and if there isnt one, i might have to start it on my own

rmb2012 · 07-13-2008, 03:24 AM

We will need at least 5 students to get it recognized as a School Club, we already have 3 that i know actively play =-D

rmb2012 · 07-13-2008, 11:54 PM

Pumps are more then welcome! ive been playing with nothing but a mech cocker for a few weeks now, thinking about getting a pump kit soon

aperson · 07-13-2008, 11:54 PM

thats fine, i might be converting my cocker to pump sometime and even if i dont, i have a mech cocker that i actually like using more than my e-cocker right now

super_stanchy · 07-14-2008, 12:21 AM

hahaha sweeet!!!

i was gonna say if i have the only pump on a team of angels or somethin....

i might get rid of my 2 snipers.... and get a phantom... i think!

rmb2012 · 07-14-2008, 12:28 AM

Playing with people using DM's and other guns (In the woods) like that me and my mech cocker have been doing just was well as i would if i was playing with my Quest, plus im saving tons on paint!

Jdcatcher5252 · 07-14-2008, 01:11 AM

rmb2012 · 07-14-2008, 01:21 AM

MedfordMayhem · 07-14-2008, 02:24 AM

Hey gl guys lol

Hopefully we can get a squad at western going, and we could hit it up!!

aperson · 07-14-2008, 11:50 AM

playing against other colleges would be awesome. if you have friends at other schools, let them know so we can plan some more fun games like that

sethd924 · 07-14-2008, 06:04 PM

I see you guys are organizing at PSU, that's sweet! What type of ball are you all looking to play? If you like woodsball and are trying to keep things cheap, we have a paintball community about 20 minutes away from PSU... maybe 25.

We have 20 acres of scenario type play and it's free to our members. Check us out at http://www.okcompanypaintball.com. We are not a field, just an organized group of players who like tactical woodsball.

Cheers

aperson · 07-14-2008, 09:37 PM

we are open to just about any type of playing, i will check the site out and if there is any interest from others we will come play with you guys sometime

super_stanchy · 07-15-2008, 12:20 AM

im up for anything....

speedball, woodsball, scenario....

yall need to approach the student fee committie and see if you can get some funding.. when i was in the student governemnt the SFC was spending $6.2 million a year on various groups... all you need to do is throw together a proposal and present it infront of them. If they give you a hard time you can always run in the student elections of the SFC and get on the committie yourself..
