Paintball

So i am on a paintball team called the dirty monkeys. we play in semi-professional tournamentsall over the state, and have even went to surrounding states such as illinois and kentucky. Our team has five regular players and a couple substitutes. Our Captain, Tyler Beard, and my brother, has been playing paintball the longest out of any of the other tem mates. Our team has been together ever since 2004 when i was in eighth grade. We have won many tournaments including taking third place in one of the biggest tournaments in Indiana. Playing paintball witht these guys has given me some awesome memories that i will never forget. I think the one that stics out the most was when we were playing in a tournament in Attica. It was a memorial tournament for a buddy of ours who passed away in a car crash. We had two teams in the tournament. Our teams took first and second place at the tournament. The prize for winning for the combioned two teams was $300. As soon as they handed us the money, we went straight to the parents of the kid who died and gave them the money to help pay for the funeral, it wasnt much, but we did what we could. I plan on continuing to play paintball until i cant play anymore. My goal onbe day is to become the number player in the NPPL, National Professional Paintball League
