I have lived in the area for a couple years but hadn't played paintball in several. Before moving to the area I played nearly every weekend since about 1999. I have been thinking about playing again and was looking for some good fields and younger (25 - 35) adults that play. Are there any fields around that are not just in it for the money, but take a genuine interest in the sport and the players?

I played quite a bit of woods ball, speed ball, some scenarios, and the occasional tournament.

Hey man, I answered your post and then you deleted it. HAHA, now I have to retype it.

I've been playing as well for a long time, since '97 or so. THe sport has changed completely since then. Paint went from costing $90/case to $30/case, and you can buy a gun that shoots faster than a LCD Angel at Walmart for around $100. In my opinion, it's changed for the better. I think that now is a great time to get back in.

We have a group of around eight of us that play damn near every week and you are more than welcome to come with us. I'm 24, but our ages range from early 20's to late 30's (I think, haha). We are going to a field in Grapevine tomorrow if you are interested in going. I don't know if you have a set up or not, but if you do, you should come with us. If you live in or around Plano you can just follow us down. It's about a 45 minute drive. Send me a PM if you are interested. I'm going to be playing mostly tomorrow, but I'm also going to be advertising the site a bit too. I'm planning on getting some fliers together and handing them out.

Hey guys, I am 21 and I try to go up to xdrenaline a few times a month. Havent been recently because I was waiting for my right quad to heal up, I severly strained it back a few months ago.

I have a dm4, halo v35 rip, and a draxxus 68/4500.

I will let you guys know when I am going out there and maybe we can get together for a few games.

i really wanna play in there league thing but i just dont think it would be worth the money just because of the way the divisions are set up. They encompass way to many people. You wither have to be 13 and younger or 14 and older and not be pro or semi pro. IMO I think thats just to big of a group of players to where one team will pretty much dominate everything becasue they will have no competition since the divisions aren't split up enough. I think their should be a beginner, rookie and open levels to make it a little more fair.
