Tippinators Win Most Sportsmanlike Team

The Tippinators took to the field for their first tournament of the 2006 season at Stormwarning Paintball Games in New Minas, Nova Scotia on January 14, 2006. The team was eager to play at a new field for the first time.

The team was warmly welcomed by Bruce Adams and all the teams at Storms Paintball with many teams expressing their eagerness to take to the field against the Tippinators. The tournament was a rookie and novice event with 16 teams and ten rounds of play. Unfortunately the Tippinators were not able to play every team in attendance. Throughout the day the team did have a chance to meet and talk with almost every other participant and made many new friends as a result.

Surviving the Night

Night Paintball - What every player should know

originally published in the December 2005 issue of Paintball Sports Magazine

Night paintball has been around for over a decade, but only within the past year or two has the popularity of the sport experienced such dramatic change. Scenario paintballers are swarming to evening games like second graders charging the playground at recess. Big events such as Oklahoma D-Day and Nightmare City dedicate at least one evening for night paintball, and woodsball™ fields are increasingly giving players an opportunity to showcase their nocturnal combat abilities.

Tippinators Play in Open Tournament

The Tippinators stepped up the team's level of competition on November 5th, 2005 by entering an Open Class 3-Man tournament at Mersey Road Paintball for the fourth tournament in the team's history. Some great teams showed up for the tournament including; Overkill Hate Crew (tournament winners), Team Overkill, Primal (mens and ladies), Spikes 5150 to name a few. Even though the Tippinators are still a rookie team they felt the experience of playing against better teams would help with their long range development.
