Main factor is ...I strongly agree with this post. <br /><br />Main factor is cost. Player demographic: young 'uns and older men with families or saving up for marriage. Now, I don't know how much boxes cost in Singapore, but I do know that once prices are slashed for competitive players, they tend to shoot alot more. Rec-ball prices can usually stay the same so that the field doesn't lose money. <br /><br />Have to understand bad calls dog every competition. Alot of "bad calls" are often perceived. All in all, the majority of complaints and the low attendance ultimately traces back to the issue of cost. <br /><br />Unless this cost issue is handled well by the organiser, be it the PBAS or RD management which appears to be closely meshed, that they are one and the same - it is unlikely that sustainable interest in paintball (from the older teams) can be achieved.<br /><br />It is not a matter of getting marker restrictions reduced. Not everyone, especially the kids, will be able to own an e-marker. The mentality of "If I get it/bring it here, they will buy and shoot more paint" does not hold water. The mentality of the player demographic is always COST COST COST. <br /><br />Thank you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
