Brand new tourny team... questions/ info

[FallenAngel]

Hey, this is my third thread on tournament teams and things and its prolly getting annoying and im sorry but I dont know many things about tournaments or things like this. 1st question, Is it ok for more then one team to have the same name? (example: me and my friend are co-captains of this team and we decided on the name Fallen Angels... but on another thread a guy showed me a site for team names and it shows three different Fallen Angels) 2nd how much would the start up cost of this team be? 3rd how hard is it to get a sponsor?...

Any Information or answers to these questions would be very much appreciated.

yeh its cool to have the same name, as long as you guys dont play in the same area. Start up cost? depends on how much you wanna practice, and want tournys you plan to enter. the difficulty of gettin a sponsor depends on alot of stuff. Mostly on your teams record. So dont worry about sponsors, untill you get a couple tournys under your belt.

FallenAngel,
It's best to have a distinct name, but as long as you're the only team in your area to have the name you should be fine.
As for startup costs, there really won't be any unless you get jersies straight away. But, you will need to practice. It's best to pick a field that you like and has a cool owner (this is key) to practice at, and commit to practicing there. If the owner thinks you're commited and serious about playing, there is a decent chance he will start cutting you deals on paint and such. That will probably be the only sponsorship you will be able to get until you start winning, but it never hurts to talk to store owners to see if they can cut any deals with you.
