hi guys
Thank you for all the advise everyone. I just have an IMPORTANT (over dramatic important) question. I was reading an article of how to set up a paintball team, and it says you play weekly and you have some decent guns. Well, the decent guns part is easy, just find some good cheap guns. But I do not know anywhere where I can play weekly. So, there a 4 weeks in a year, and I get £20 a month. I (and I think the whole of the team) are willing to put all of that into paintball (or at least most, maybe a few days we wont go) but anyway, does anyone know anywhere that I can afford this. I just wish I could play for often, because once a months fine but I really want to set up a good team and playing 2-4 times a month would be awesome! 

Thanks a lot you guys (and girls)
Tom
p.s. I live in the UK, east midlands. If there is anywhere in Leicester with this budget, GREAT. If not, east midlands. If not there, as close as possible.
Thanks

Why are you asking basically the same question again, that you asked repeatedly elsewhere, that got the threads they were in locked by admin?

Not many of us are from the UK, so we're not going to know any fields that are in your area....

you can try to use this http://www.pbnation.com/fields/

Let me explain:

We are not trolling you, we are tired of the same question (which has been answered) appearing in multiple threads.

(Bold added for emphasis)

From this thread on 22 Feb 2011:

I have just been to delta force for my first go at paintballing. Loved it. it was amazing. But the problem was do to pricing, location and booking it would be more of a place were I would go for a competition match, not to train. So could anyone tell me about any clubs (paintballing clubs, obviously) that follow these guidelines

-in the east Midlands, UK. The closer to Leicester the better
-come and play every week to play and train
-provides everything until I get enough money to get my own stuff
-£10 or less per session (better if that includes 100 paintballs)
-obviously, an actual club so if you get good enough they try to get you into a team where you eventually play pro matches.

If it goes a little bit off any of them rules, its fine.


From the same thread:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

well, I just been delta force which is one of those places you go maximum of once a month and it only cost me £25 with 250 paintballs! Okay then, what about a club or team in Leicester or near to Leicester (in the east mids UK), every week, still about a tenner for a session but I could provide my own stuff. If not I'll just have to go to delta force once a month.


From this thread on 23 Feb 2011:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

After finding out that I could not get into a club for under £10, I thought about making my own. I have a facebook group, we are the paintball predators and we are trying to recruit 15 members. at the moment we are just going to delta force each month but I am looking for land that I can use and if that doesn't work I'm buying my own land. Ages that can join are 13+, so if you want to join then do so via facebook.


From another thread on 25 Feb 2011:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

Hi
does anyone know any paintball fields in the east midlands UK, closer to leicester the better' where me and my friends can play renegade for free, as long as we have all the equipment and ammo?


From yet another thread on 4 Mar 2011:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

the problem with starting one is that I dont know where I can find the land that is free to use. if there was a website to locate the nearest one that would be great. Otherwise I would start one. 

I'll check out that site and yahoo.

p.s. the question is how do I find the free to use paintball fields?


From later in the same thread:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

I had a look and found no games near me. How do I find a field that allows paintballers (not a centre where you have to pay to play)


Also from the same thread after being advised to use Google:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

already have. If you could find me a renegade field that would be great


. . . and . . .

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

okay then, can you tell me what to search on google.


Same thread after being advised to join a local forum (which would work better than asking people based in the states where to play in the UK):

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

have. okay then, new sort of question. How can I find or get (for free) an abandoned or away from alot of people some land where me and my friends can play paintball? then I can set up my own game.


From an additional thread on 6 Mar 2011:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

can anyone name me any walk on sites in the east midlands, UK? By that I mean you take your own equipment and just pay for paintballs or a very low entry fee. Leicester would be great.


From even another thread on 8 Mar 2011:

Originally posted by ostrich160 ostrich160 wrote:

hi paintballersI am really getting into the sport even though I have only been twice. And thats the problem, I want to go at least once a week, not maximum once a month. So, I was thinking of making my own site, I read alot on it and now I know what to do except one thing. Where can I get the land? I might not make my own club, but I at least want to know where I can play for free. Any field finders for the uk. Anyone have any recommendations on how I can get free or very cheap land.



They are all essentially the same question.  Not only that you have been advised to use Google (including being specifically told what to search for), given the web address of UK paintball forums and had it explained that people in other countries really can't be much help when it comes to finding paintball clubs, outlaw fields or free land to play on in the UK.  Despite this, you continue to post essentially the same question that resulted in multiple thread lockings and get your panties in a bunch when called on it.

This is how it is:  Most of us can't help you; you need to find this stuff yourself.  Continually reposting the same question will not change this fact.  If you can't find the information or a location to play via the resources that have been provided you are probably safer not playing paintball anyway.

Thanks elvis I didnt know that rebel paintball was a cheaper place, although it doesnt really matter now as the national piantball fields let you go in free for £150.

I meant £150 for lifetime membership so you get in free once you've paid that. I decided against that though as I live to far away. Instead, I am just going to go to a paintball field every month and instead of getting my on land I am going to play on public land with these alternative, safer paintball guns to practice with.
