Paintball Hints and Tactics Article!

After you’ve gotten good enough to move up to the Novice national teams from Thetford, now the costs skyrocket, as does the commitment necessary from the paintballers. Unfortunately, the value of the team as a promotional tool does not skyrocket. Frankly, I don’t know how Thetford teams can do it anymore unless they are owned by the paintball store or field that sponsors them. At least in those cases the purchasing power of the business can attract sponsors. If the field buys enough paintballs, they might be able to get free event paint, jerseys, pants and gloves. Thetford players cannot realistically expect more then that. Maybe you can land some deals for discounted gear, but you are not going to get three free markers or Halos and you are not likely to get your entry fees paid for unless your patron store decides to foot the bill for you. I think a lot of Novice level national teams are still working for a large part of their sponsorship – reffing local Thetford events to raise entry fees for national ones. I know from the Thetford local teams in my area that the players are paying for their hotel, rental car and airfare, as well as practice paint. Simply put, for a national sponsor, there is no promotional value in a Novice team. There is value in supporting customers, though, so sponsorship can work through the local stores and paintball fields, going from the national companies to the local companies to the teams. Even after you’ve hit this level – national play – this is still a very expensive sport. That is not going to change. As long as you are going to pay a lot out of pocket.
