Memphis Paintball Park Game thread

[grant.94]

This is now the thread for games at the MPP. We are trying to get regular games set up throughout each month so we have a chance to play airsoft throughout the year. Check the newer pages of this tread for game dates and times.

I'm in. I vote for Sept 15th if it matters.
I'm a noob and this will be my first time playing.
One of my Friends is an experienced player and I could get him to come, and possibly two more noobs if they could borrow/rent a couple guns.

i personally don't have any extras so you would have to ask someone else, and sept 15 is a good possibility, we'll see what other people say.

May want to read the 2nd post there regarding us playing on the fields. If you mean playing on the fields, that would be a bad idea for several reasons. The back 40 is where we play at.

[grant.94]

i have discussed the idea with the owner eric zorn this is the email conversation that followed:
Grant-

This is Shawn, the manager of the paintball park. We do allow airsoft games at the park. It works in one of two ways. One would be that you can bring out any size group and play on our fields, unregulated by us, for $10 a person, regardless of the size of your group. The other option would be that we allow groups to play on our fields with referee supervision, and that runs you $15 per person, and includes a minimum of 10 people. This must also be booked in advance if you're wanting the referee. Hopefully that answers your questions. If not, please give me a call at (901) 372-3383, or feel free to email me back. Thanks!

I was wondering if you allowed groups of airsoft players back in the woodsball field. I've seen small groups playing but never more than five or six un organized kids. there is quite a large and active airsoft community in the memphis area, mainly things are organized and set up through forums online, but there are alot of serious mature players that would probably come to an event or two on your woodsball courses without interfering with your regular open groups.

As you can see they are ok with us playing so please do not try to stop this little game without any real cause.

Oops sorry meant Sept 5th. The 15th is a Wednesday.

I'm in! It would be fun to play on the actual fields... I would like to play Moore field soon to get ready for the semi MilSim. (if it comes together!)...

[grant.94]

yeah me too im ready for some milsim! but yeah sometime not this weekend but i think the next one will be good if we get enough people to come out.

[Tactical Donut]

Hey guys (Grant), the original agreement with MPP was negotiated a good while back by a well respected member of our community who also happened to be an avid paintballer at their field. It was setup to not interfere with MPPs regularly visiting business customers (who btw would typically spend more than just a field fee). For a period of time the "back 40" woods area was the only wooded location in the area that we had to play and it served the purpose very well; we were always careful not to jeopardize that and respected the arrangement that was in place. The same concept holds true today as we want to remain on great terms with MPP.

While it appears you've received a go for playing the front areas, Please keep these things in mind if you make it out there and serve your local Airsoft community well by keeping things in check. Oh yea, don't forget your paintball masks, and have a great time!

[grant.94]

Yes, I plan on rotating courses often so we don't monopolize any one course that the regulars would want to play on, and making sure we respect the site and the other players there, since we represent airsoft to the paintball players there.

[65mike]

Yeah, my three sons are dying to play again ...morris field ?

[Nodnarb901]

Any dates yet? I would again like to nominate Sunday Sept 5th.

[grant.94]

5th is fine, but its the first sunday of the month which means bring your own paint day which means alot of kids are gonna be going. saturday the 4th would be better. and no it's not a moore field its at the mpp
