My Very First Paintball Experience!

Participants from different departments of our school gathered at Global Gutz along Roxas Boulecard beside Boom na Boom grounds for the very first Paintball Competition that was became a part of Talakasan 2009 last February 12,2009.

Paintball is a game where players of two teams compete in an enclosed field by "shooting their opponents with a paintball gun. It's one of the sports that come closest to an actual gun battle without anybody getting seriously hurt.
Before the game, Jonard Girato, a paintball trainer, discussed the guidelines for the Paintball game wherein he stated that there will only be 5 members allowed each team. Each players will have 16 shots of paintball for the elimination round and was given 10 minutes to defeat their opponents. Still, the objective of the game is to kill all the players in their opponent and get their flag.

Provided with the masks, markers (gun), and 16 pieces of paintball, each teams will compete for the other team.

And now.... Uno... Dos.... Tres.... Vamos!

Bilis! Ang sakit kapag natamaan ka.

Tago lang...

Dapa mode... Kailangan 'yan sa strategy!

Kasama pa rin ang pagpapacute.

Hanapin ninyo ako... Ang sakit ng katawan ko!

Everybody who played this game showed their own strategies to win. You cannot win in this game just by hiding under cover, pointing your gun from time to time and shooting. You have to be aggressive and learn to run, duck, roll, crawl and scream if needed. Anticipating the movements of your opponents and coordinating with your team mates at the same time is an important key in winning the game.

After the set of games. labo-labo naman. It was fun, though ang dami kong pasa. Hehe!
