I Just Bought A Set Of Paintball Rifles — How Can I Start My Own Team?

By:


If you decide to start your own paintball team, the first thing you should do is pat yourself on the back. This is going to be fun, rewarding, and a huge confidence boost for both you and your teammates. It will also help to develop leadership and communication skills that will be valuable for years to come, in addition to sharpening your shooting.

After said back-patting, you need to start building your team. For one thing, it's important to think about including not only the "best" players but also the players with the most passion. These special people will lift everyone's spirits and generally help to bring the team together. And besides, you can train a person with heart to shoot better much easier than you can train a skilled shooter to have heart.

With that in mind, there are several different ways you can go about building your own paintball team, but they all begin the same; you need to evaluate the paintball rifles you have at your disposal. If each of your players has only one or two guns, you won't have that many options when it comes to assembling your weapons.

Basically, the more guns you have, the more interesting things become. For example, with enough of a selection, you can arm your entire team with Tippman paintball guns or any other single brand of weapon. Another option is to divide up weapons by type, so one shooter is carrying a sniper rifle while another is sporting a super compact Tippman pistol.

For extra support, look for a local Boys & Girls Club to start your team. These are clubs that are dedicated to keeping young people safe, inspired, healthy, and happy. I actually grew up very close to one of these, so I learned to appreciate it as a valuable resource in connecting local kids.

Some Boys & Girls Clubs are only interested in sponsoring activities organized by staff members, while other locations are receptive to letting mature teens run activities of their own, even paintball teams. And with a whole club to draw from, you'll have an army of paintballers in no time!

Even if you can't find a club near you or would prefer to start a team another way, there are plenty more options to choose from. For one, serious players might be interested in finding team sponsors. These are local businesses that will help your team pay for supplies and other expenses in exchange for some advertisement on your behalf, which is usually as simple as wearing the companies' logos on a t-shirt.

Having a sponsor will make it easier to enter your team in various tournaments, which can allow you to profit from a game you already enjoy playing for free—how great is that? But before any money is awarded, I recommended discussing a plan with your teammates to split the money evenly, in addition to allotting a certain percentage to be spent on supplies, travel, food, etc. After all, you wouldn't want something as joyous as prize money to tear your team apart.
