Advertising 2 fields

"We offer two beautiful 100’x200’ speedball fields"

I think maybe you guys (Tommy, Joe, Someone!) should take this out of the field description/advertisement. Ever since Ive played at the swamp there has only been 1 speedball field setup..except for the ACTS tournament (3man and 5man). But for just general play there is only 1 speedball field, which is generally ALWAYS being used by speedball teams for practice. Are you guys looking into adding another field? It would be nice to have a speedball field type setup for walk on/rec players to use without having to barge in on the players using it for actual practice. Ive said it before..but Id love to see a hyper ball field (Im sure a lot of you noobs dont know what that is, look it up), or even a spool field that is mirrored and even. Its nice to have an even playing field. Anyone else agree?

PS: for all you young'ns...dynasty once was a 10 man team playing on hyper ball fields sponsored by WDP, shooting angels with revvys. Proof:

That should bring back some memories.

i agree you cant really just go and play a round of speedball because teams are always practicing there, im not saying that is a bad thing but i just think it would get more people into speedball if they could play every once and a while..

oh and that video did bring back some memories

I guess if your referring to Sundays then its always D'Votion practicing But if you would like to play all you have to do is come over to the field and say something. We are more than happy to share the field. All of us wanna see speedball as well as the swamp grow. So you are welcome to jump in a game with us, we do our best to make the teams even and help out younger or newer players. Or if you have a group of friends that wanna play your welcome to and we would stay out of it and you can have your fun ;D Speedball is very fun and a large adrenaline rush compared to scenario and it may be something you would enjoy. So if you ever decide you wanna play just let us know

ok, i will remember that next time i go to the swamp on a sunday and feel like giving speedball out a try

[keeprollin02]

Yea I definately wasnt referring to you guys jeff. Dvotion is always very understanding when it comes to using the field. I just think that people are less likely to ASK to use the field if teams are using it for practice. It would just be nice to have a speedball type setup for rec players without having to barge in on practices, saturdays or sunday.

[pmr02]

I agree that would be pretty cool...

well tell you what guys I apolgize for the description scrump up first of. If I had any clue how to edit this thing I would make the cange but I will pass it down the line and thanks for pointing it out. and as for the teams that won't get out of your way. The swamp dogs now have three teams that hopefully will be coming out to practice and try to improve on there skills if you want to try your hand at speedball please let me know I can find you two other people to play with and if you are can ball who knows we may call you up if were a man short for tourny.

well here is the deal.
we have 2 speedball fields actually we have 3. If we had enough speedballers to play them then they would be open. the reason the "hood" was created was because the speedballers were not bringing us enough money. speedballers always promise well if you get us this field or get us that then players will come. we want to see the players then the upgrades for speedballers will come. i hate to say it being a speedballer myself but the fact is true. the swamp dawgs have no problem practicing or playing on our field. hell watch heroes for a day and see the field XSV practices on. if you practice on a not so decent field, when you get to tournament its easier. DVotion and swamp dawgs black took first the past EPL here and we are proud. hate to vent but the truth hurts.

You have 3 huh? Well then why are they never setup? You are venting but I dont quite understand at what, maybe to all of the speedballers looking to when this "xball" field will arrive that they are supposedly paying extra for or something? Or do I have that totally wrong? Im just saying, there should be some kind of even setup for rec players to use as a "speedball" type setup. Im not talking high dollar xball fields or anything...if you have 3 fields then why doesnt anyone ever set them up??? I know from experience that setting up a field and blowing up all the bunkers (12 for rec play?) doesnt take that long. I just am making my suggestions to help both the Swamps business and to ensure players a great paintball experience. Because honestly..they both go hand in hand.

[conceptballer]

yea i also heard that the speedballers where going to pay extra to get some kind of speedball course. i dont know if that is true but that is just what i heard. I understand that you want more speedballers to come but i think a lot of people do not really want to go play when there is a team practicing on the field.

[pmr02]

yea we have been paying extra for months for a field but who knows whats going on with that. you can play anytime on the speedball field its usually just games being played that are made of whoever wants to play at that time.

[prezal]

i think their should be a speed ball field for rec players. if you did it would open up speed for newer players or people who don't know any speed ball players. iv been playing paintball for about 5 yrs and only played speed ball 4times. the 4 times i played was the most fun iv had playing paintball. also it will let teams seek out talent in the rec ball players.

the speedball field at the swamp is perfect for recballers to get out on the field and expericence speedball. just get a small group of ballers together and hop on the field for a game or two
