Another subject you could talk about is the fact that quite a few colleges now have teams/clubs and there is even a National Collegiate Paintball Association(NCPA) dedicated to collegiate paintball(as well as at the high school level). I'm not sure how good you are with computers but in addition to turning in this paper you might want to consider doing a PowerPoint presentation. If you do, go in there feeling utterly confident that you will completely blow their socks off. Also, try and get some parents involved; in other words try and get a parent or parents to go in with you and tell the school staff about what they have seen as commonplace in the world of paintball. If you can get a parent that actually plays, all the better. Anyway, I'm digressing. Just remember to dot those I's and cross those T' and you should do fine.

    P.S.
    If they end up not allowing a team, then it probably just wasn't meant to be. But somehow, I think you'll get it passed. Just reaaaaaally emphasize on how safe paintball is, that's all they really want to hear(besides having a high demand for participation in(on) the team.

    Thanks, yeah, a power point presentation wouldnt be so bad. Also, today I heard another local school has a paintball team. I am going to find out, and if they do, most likely my school will jump the gun too.

              A big thing to emphasis is how many other places it's being accepted...colleges..other high schools...even find some that are already started, call then and get permissions from them to use them as a reference to how it's going with them...

              also...as far as the fields go...try and find a local pb field that would be willing to work out a deal with the school...that way the school wouldn't be in a financial place really, and the field could get more publicity...win-win situation...

              as far as females playing...emphasis it...then get em on here and give them my pm...we'll "girl talk"...hehe

              GOOD LUCK!

              I'm not in High School anymore...but I'm thinking aboutgoing back to mine and proposing the idea...even "coaching it"...

              another good thing to do would be to get some of the teacher staff to support you and offer to "coach" ...



              hope this helps...
