As in... Why aren't they playing at a Pro level?

or...

Why are you only playing as Amateurs' at IAO?

[Prairie]

Uhm.

"No."

As in, why arent they playing novice at IAO. Amateur is an EXTREMELY competitve division.

We know that the am. division is very competive, but we still expect to win. 5 of the 7 players that are going to the IAO are former SOBs. As the SOBs we won world cup and the NPPL AM B series in 99. The SOBs have been top 5 at the IOA a handfull of times. The other 2 players we have are Chance and Chester from the S.P.O.R.E.s. Both are solid paintballers and are extremely fast. We will also be playing World Cup this year in the Am division.

If you think the Am division is gonna be competitive, what do you think the X-Ball is gonna be like ?
The best of the best against the best of the best, should be fun :)

Troy,

Im bringing my Canon and the long lens....

I am used to taking tourney pics and have taken many for APG. I am working the AGD booth though. So... if Tom wants me to take pics of you guys for any reason - let me know. I have no problem doing it - its just a matter of if Tom wants me to.

take care!

Hey,

I'll be hanging around friday. I could prolly take some pics of you guys on friday for most of the day. It will be better then nothing if no one else can.

Also, it's cool that your going there expecting to win in the AM division. But the fact is, is that AM these days is alot harder than it has ever been. AM B is now Novice, which there is also alot of good players/teams. You definitly have a tough tourney in front of ya.
