a friend of mine has a pretty nice section of woods behind his place that we were talking about getting some people to play.  we started thinking that we could run a add in the local, free paper for our area about looking for players.  I was thinking that we would get the tanks and charge people 5 a day to refill and the bring there own balls.  that should cover a tank refill shouldnt it?  we thought that if it got good enough, enough players, we could maybe make it into a weekend thing for extra cash.

if we got to the point of charging a fee to play, other than for refills, do you charge for the day, or by the game?  what is a good price for both refills and event?

  he also has an area that would make a nice speed ball section. 

what info can you guys give to help make this fun and maybe, maybe profitable??  i know keeping the players happy and offering something interesting, different will be the key right?

in the words of Doc Nickel "If you really, really like to play paintball, don't open your own field"

Well, look for that group, start discussing what is needed and play Outlaw Ball.
