I think that your chances are not very good because sponsors want a spectator sport that has every square inch of it covered in ads

so even though we could get sponsors tons of money bc kids in my area only go after products that are well know, chances are slim?

You would have to be a good scenario team that travels to places and gets noticed. A team I went around with got a few sponsors that were very good.

You could get sponsored, but dont count on a full ride. Maybe a disount on paint or air.

I forgot to mention, sponsorship is not all it's cracked up to be. Unless your like The Blues Crew (Scenario team) or Dynasty ya probably wont get anything free.

Main benefits from a paintball store sponsorship is discount prices and that's about it unless the store owner is mega rich and likes to spend money.

yeah...my bubddy's speedball team got sponsors, but they dont have full rides. i dont mind, i was just wondering if woodsball teams could get sponsers at all. paint and air would be nice. and theres very minimal paintball shops in my area, maybe like two, and those are department stores.
