woot i love scp

[SEAL 6]

any word on the situation with the city?

[LiM-O]

SCP is not closing down as far as I know it and we'll be the home still for many teams.

their latest addition to the park includes their JT field which has amazing turf and bunkers.

How is the turnout here on Saturdays?
Some self-equipped? many rentals?

How many guns on average?

[Karnagewolf]

Saturdays get fairly busy at the park. Mostly it is rentals but, there have been quite a few more self equipped showing up as well. With summer coming it should get busier.

[pballeragain]

I was there this past Sat (05/30). I was playing on the JT Field and there were various versus games (from 3V3 to 7V7) depending on who was getting paint or resting. On the intermediate field, I think it was 4V4 or 5V5. As mentioned previously, there were a lot of rentals.

I'll most likely be there this Sat (as long as it doesn't rain) with a couple of other self equiped people. 1 is bringing family but they'll be renting. I'll either be going old school to play with them or just play on the other field(s).

It is nice how they have a field just for rentals. Kinda unfair for rentals to go up against people with their own set up.

hey i take trips to santa maria every now and then and wondring how far is it to scp[i play pump though]

[916baller]

so let me get this straight...paint is 50 bucks, air is 10, full day is 25. so 85 for a whole day of ball?

[bumblB]

No no, it's not 85 for a full day. It depends on what you need. If you're self equipped it is 25 for all day admission (8 AM to 4 PM on Sat/Sun) and 10 for all day air, or 5 for a single fill. We recently changed to a "Field Paint Only" but you are allowed to bring in outside paint as long as the Office Girls or Refs check the paint first. And for outside paint there is a small fee too. I don't like the outside paint charge, but new rules are new rules.

But if you're renting on a Sat/Sun, it's 60 for a half day rental package including marker, goggles, chest and neck protector if asked, admission for half day, all day air fills, and a bag (500 rounds) of paint. It's 70 for an all day rental package which is the same thing as the half day, but you get two bags (1000 rounds) instead of just the single bag, plus all day play.

Hope this info helps!

Out of curiosity why is it field paint only?

I mean I can understand there being a no pink/red/dark blue rule but why field only?

Also why is there a ban on scuba filling your own tank? It seems from when I was last there your max fill pressure is 3000 psi anyway.

Not complaining, just curious why fields do this. Id hope if I have to pay for field air for example id get a full fill. Was there yesterday and was only able to get 2500psi fills and by the afternoon it was 2200-2300 psi. Thats not cool IMO, wastes lots of time (1-2 games) every fillup because of all the walking. I got a 4500psi tank for a reason.

[bumblB]

It was the owner's choice to change to field paint only. Almost all the staff voted against it, but what the boss man says goes pretty much.

For the ban on filling you own scuba tanks is because of the insurance policy at the field. We don't know if the scuba tank sitting in your car is still within the hydro test date, if you are trained for that sort of thing, if everything you are using are within the safety standards, and etc.

I do understand that if you played at SCP within the past month or so, our air station compressor was on the fritz and not filling tanks up to where they should be. The problem has been solved and people with 4.5K tanks get their 4.5K fills now. Sorry on the late reply, but hope it answers some questions. Come on down and play!

[CrackerJackPB]

i was thinking of getting a membership but the field paint only thing ruined it for me, because then id have to pay$10 everytime I go so that sucks

[KappY!]

Not sure if people are aware of this, but for the next few hours, there is a deal on SCP passes. For 6 passes including: entry, unlimited air, and all rental equipment for $30. That's like $5 a pass, all you would have to do is buy paint. From what Yelp says, the guys who are selling the passes, they don't expire, so you can use them for forever. Here is the link:
