Paintball Malaysia - 28 March 2009

This is the biggest event I organised so far. A colourful Jurong Birdpark bus was chartered to bring us to Armour Paintball at Skudai, Johor. Ken helped me gather the people at Outram (1st pick up point), while I managed the ones at JE. The turn up was much better than expected. A total of 42 warriors turned up. =)

We headed to a shopping mall in JB for our lunch and some shopping before we went to Armour Paintball. A warrior must have a full tummy before a battle.

All of us changed to our army uniforms and were taught to use the guns. We had a total of 6 teams of 6-7 men and women. We had a round robin in the 1st round, where each team get to play against every team. The 1st round was vigorous, when we learnt to move in the jungle terrain to reach the flag and shoot our opponents with our guns. Teams would have to put on their masks, body armours and guns after each game. We were exhausted after the 1st round.

2nd round was left with 4 teams. My team (4th pic from bottom) fortunately made it to this round. Again, it was a tough match. We fought hard but lost. The remaining 2 teams which fought at the third and final round were good. The champions were the 'commandos' (third pic from the bottom). They played like professionals, maybe there are in the same army unit. They gave commands, leapard crawled and did fire movements to get to the flags. The 1st runner-up were mainly friends from my secondary school (4th pic from the top).

After the tough battles, we washed up a little and went to a nice hawker in JB for dinner. Food was simply amazingly delicious. We ordered almost all the local delicacies. We headed back to Singapore after that, exhausted but satisfied.
