Im almost dead sure there is a thread on this somewhere.
However, I will give you some advice to make this a legitimate post.
How to Start a Paintball Team !!!

1. Organize 5 to 15 paintballers you know and trust. Everyone should have his or her own equipment.
2. Play together and talk about organizing a team. Do you all have similar motivations and expectations?
3. Decide on a captain and a name for your team. The captain should be the most organized player, and a good leader, not necessarily the best player.
4. Seek sponsorship. Talk about what you would like from your sponsors (supplies, money, discounts, etc.) and explain to them what you will be doing in return (patronage, advertising, image). Be realistic and don't expect too much.
5. Find a home field. It should be somewhere local where you all like to play. Talk with the owner and see how he feels about your team calling his field "home." Offer to help referee and clean up in exchange for discounts or use of a practice field.
6. Play together as a team as much as possible, focusing on tactics and strategy. Talk before and after each game about what went right and wrong.
7. Enter a tournament and represent your sponsors well by displaying good sportsmanship whether you win or lose.

Thanx 4 the tips man, by the way do you quote scripture because you believe what the bible says, or do you just like that verse? (just curious)

Look for all types of players.
Look for back players: Doesnt have to be fast and doesnt have to be big. Has to have fast fingers and fast gun too.
Look for mids: Ussually more expierienced players. Needs to be fast and have a fasy gun.
Look for front players: Needs to be very fast and willing to dive and slide. Usually should be kind of small but ive seen em big.
Also the amount of player u need depends on the types of tournements you are going to. If you are going to 3 man u need 4 or 5. If you are going to 7 or 10 man tourneys ur gonna look at maybe 13-15.
if you are going to psp ramp tourneys you will need to look people with higher end guns with ramp.
Semi tourneys u better have electric guns.
Woods tourneys doesnt really matter, can have anything
