Its not Bushball. Its called Speedball. Much faster and more exciting to watch.

I'm playing paint ball out at manor park on Friday night, any tips?

Not long to go.
My team have been practising for a while now.
We have never actually played a game together yet (have played for other teams), but we hope to get into the finals.

We will have to wait and see aye!

Turn off the highway at Tawa. Its easy to find from there.

I went to check out the feild today. Theres going to be some very exciting games.
Well worth a look if your going to be around.

What a great weekend!
The tourny went without any dramas, so all had a good couple days!
My team (Team Damage) got 6th overall on Saturday, but got bumped down to 8th on the Sunday.
For our first tourny we were stoked!

Bring on the next one!

Wish I had got out there to take a look.

How many pellets do you think you used?
It's not like back in the day I used to play with pump action guns.

All up my team went through 14cases. 2000rounds per case... you do the math.
The top 4 teams went through nearly 30 cases per team!
I carried 200 in the hopper plus 5 pods (holding 140 rounds per pod) on my back and used most of them each game.

Some guys were taking up to 8 pods on their backs! But that to me was silly. They can shoot much faster than me though too. But its so much extra weight to run round with.
