I have heard that in a few states in the US there are colleges with paintball teams, is this true? if so why in the heck can't we get them in high schools??? I mean i know that it deals with guns and crap but it's not as bad as having a shotgun team or something at a high school, this would actually make me want to go to school! Tell me wut ya think.

Illinois has a pretty decent Colledge team... I dont Think Wyoming does, and I've never heard of a Utah, Idaho, or Montana one yet.... I know Colorado does, but unsure how good they are. -------------

| I would imagine that the reason not to many places adopt paintball is for liability reasons. |

A shotgun team...that's interesting. My school doesn't have anything either they think it's violent. |

Liability is a definete, for me there are a certain group of people in
my school who sue for just about anything and everything, so paintball
is a rather impossible request.

My high school has a club and I believe they get good prices on stuff at the field they go to.

I'm pretty sure that some northern schools have paintball teams and that there are maybe a dozen or so college paintball teams. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |

My school has like 3 teams, but they all suck, and they're not affiliated with the school at all.
