Tips for a new team.

Okay, so me and a couple of my friends are making a team. So let's get to the point I'm trying to make,
I really don't have ANY expreiance other then back yard airsoft so I was wondering if any of you other
players that have a team that's up and running and more importantly WORKING TOGETHER. Are there any tips
any of you others can give me so I can make this team the best I can.

P.S
I don't want to spend a lot of money other then for what I need and some others like BB's and stuff.

Yes,
One you need a large woodland field if you want to play that style. If you want to do any kind of CQB you may end up having to install your own ply wood structures or renting out a large building. and i mean cheap rental.

Two, you have the tactics and tips already. the forum

three, devising a way to practice these tactics. I reccomend setting up a calendar and have everyone write their obligations in. then try to work around it.

Four. Part of registering a team is a website requirement I can help or admin.

Ok start building some airsoft fields , host events and ecourage other friends to start teams , even though you may want them on your team , trust me this will work . Second make an airsoft website for your team , example www.freewebs.com/alabamaairsoft , and then set up some wars on your newly made fields . Charge about ten dollars for entry , and then use the money to build more fields and expand your teams . more people will see how much fun that you are having and make their own teams . Pretty soon they will start hosting their own events and with in mabey the course of a year or so , you have an fully funtunal airsoft community , and it all started with you .

lol problem is that around here land to build on isn't the easiest to find mostly suburb's.

hmm can you find a building that you can possibly rent out for CQB?

Yeah or any open fields near by or even better yet woods , do you hunt ?

no we live by denver so mostly outer city but i have a open field by my house that we will most likely play at. We have played there many times and no one cares (we have asked) as long as we don't be stupid.

Well set up a site and make players sign wavers , spread the word and then your set up .

ya that sounds about good but it will most likely just do the team for a while until we find more people.

Spread the word by showing people pic and videos from your past skirmiges .

lol sounds good.

Let some of your friends shoot your airsoft guns , and just as long as they don't break your gun or anything else for that matter it should get them hooked .

ya if they break it they buy it lol thats how i work.

LOl that's how most people go. But there is some woodland type area right by my house that nobody knows of well anybody that cares.

that could work as well maybe train at one spot for a while and just before we are perfect at one spot we go to the other to keep it interesting.

Yes rotating fields is a very good technique.

Like when farmers move their cows around fields so that there grass will grow back. Eventually they return to that spot. They just don't return until the ground is fully recovered and received it's nutrients back.
I would say move spots every now and then to keep yourself ready for situations and then come back.

Check out those places before you host an event. Atleast attend a real event before you host so you have a better idea about the way the game flows.

sticks

Were not going to host an event for a while so we have plenty of time (if you haven't got it me and kill are making the team) But we will go to events before we host one just to see what it's like and see if we can do it.

Its really not that hard aside from planning it , but after that its a breeze . Well it is after your five or sixth one .

Yeah it will be a little hard because we are still setting the team it's self up so we really have to wait on that.

Yeah set a limit for your team , then stop accepting members , might I suggest at least 8 and up to the most 12 , sometimes 15 , but deffinately no more than that .

we have about 13 confirmed right now i think not totally sure on it but after the people we asked make up there mind then that will be it but we might accept people to make there own teams and practice with us but thats what i just thought of haven't talked to lonesniper about it

14 and thats the limit , try to keep it to an even number.
