Last game played, season summary.

So, its been awhile since we updated this blog but i just haven't found the time. So instead I'm gonna try to do a summary.

Last game yesterday and what a way to end it. We went out to the field with mixed feelings, always psyched to play but kinda sad its the last game to hurt some feelings. Overall the day was great, halloween costumes everywhere, and a lot of great games with pretty nice outcomes.

Season overall has been great playing, really growing in to the community over here as pump guys and spreading the word quite nicely. Its been 5-6 big games, a first ever (for us at least) speedball pump only game day and a few other games here and there. The gear has really worked well all season and the jerseys we got from our american brothers really help us stand out.

Teamwise, the season has had its ups and downs. Alex has decided to take a break from playing this year, focusing his money on his car. I have no doubt tho, that he will be back next season.

Simeon has played more this year, and pump only. Thats pretty figurative, he's a hard guy to drag out on the field. But he's still in, being a part of the team.

Pretty much at the same time Alex decided to rest for the season, a new guy named Kevin joined the team. Kevin is a straight up nice guy and has one of the most impressing pump collections I've seen here in sweden. He's the one who played the most with me at the end of the season and has really shown his dedication.

For me as a 'captain' its been a great first year. We have spread the word nicely and is looking to expand the team for the next season so that we have a great core that can play most games together. As of right now, were 4 guys but it would be nice to be 4-5 that always can represent the team.

As for the off-season, that will be a job for me. I will also be trying to get some RC Sweden jerseys for next season so that we can stand out even more. I'm thinking just to buy some jerseys and have them sent to the printer. Maybe some other swag, well see what happens.

As for play during the winter, i have start talking to a guy about using his reball arena to practice and drill, but that will mean we have to pick up some guys to the team.

Overall, its been a great first year for RC Sweden and we would like to thank Chris and all the other american guys for your support, jerseys, barrel bags and so on.

We would also like to thank our sponsors and supporters, the St!ffi barrels has worked flawless all season and our CCM guns shoots great. Hypersports (our local sponsor) has showed great support, stepping up to give us great deals on whatever we needed. Of course, a big thanks to MCB for the support to all teams, always great lurking around in there. If I've forgot anyone, sorry but thank you too!

Phew, that came out longer than i thought. As a ending, heres a picture of yesterday with me on the right and Kevin to the left. Note the jerseys and RC Army stickers. ;)

Take care everybody!

First game of the year..

Alright so the first game of the year was this weekend and two out of three players from RC sweden were out in the beatiful weather to do some balling, Alex and me Filip. With some fresh new jerseys and barrels from St!ffi, 220+ players on the biggame it was a promising day to say the least.

First couple of games were CTF, and a hugebummer for me. First game i took a walk in 3 seconds and the second in 10. Promising ey?

But then things got better, and we both played really hard for the remaining games sticking alive in most of them and did quite alot of damage.

Its still kinda weird with us shooting pump over here, the new guys on the field really wonders and ask questions about our guns. Well, let just say that they got to see some really good pump balling this weekend and everyone was pretty impressed.

Next game in two weeks, ill try to get to that game, if not the next one is in a month.

Enjoy some pics of me and alex. :)

Thanks to our sponsors, the St!ffi barrels worked really great despite some really crappy field paint!

St!ffi barrels, practice jerseys and stickers! Season kickin off next weekend!

So today we got our St!ffi barrels, practice jerseys and a lot of stickers from our brothers in the states. The barrels are looking really sweet and we cant wait to use them! Practice jersey looks just as good and will make us stand out great.

Next weekend is the first game of the year for the RC swedes and we are really stoked. With great supporters and sponsors we are looking forward to the new season with great hopes. We would like to thank all the sponsors and supporters making us stand out from the rest and shooting with the best equipment.

Be sure to check back next weekend for some playupdates and hopefully some great pictures!

Take care!

RC...Now stabbing you with the best barrels in the industry

The RC Family is pleased to announce that we have teamed with St!ffi Barrels for the 2011 season. A few of the team members have already been shooting Stiffi for a few years and the rest are excited to get their hands on the lightest barrels on the market. Even better, Stiffi has recently started manufacturing barrels as small as .679 which is perfect for pump players in this world of shrinking paint. Add that to the fact that these barrels are hand made in the USA and come with a lifetime warranty...we can't wait to get our hands on some fresh barrels.

Jerseys are here! Booyaah!

So we got our jerseys last week after a long wait! We printed three of each to get one set each. The quality, and price, was really good and i think that we'll continue to use them if we need to print up some more shirts. The design came out really good, and why wouldnt it, i designed them!

These will be the playing jerseys for 2011.

And heres the superawesome cheap t-shirts that we almost got for free. Supercool!

Will be back as soon as i have some more updates, really looking forward to the season kicking off!

Later dudes!

The team members!

Hey whats up! It's time you guys get to know who we are, and what we shoot.

The team consist right now of 3 guys, to next season were looking to spread the word and we really want to pick up two more guys or girls to play the beatiful game of pump.

Introduction of the boys!

− Fille “Foyle” Berggren. That’s me, the capitano of RC Sweden. Born in -86.

I have been playing paintball for about 4 years now and have played pump almost the whole time. I got really interested in pump from some guys at the field who all played with old school

pumps.I’d like to say that I have been the driving force of getting a team together and I do a lot of ‘info to the new guys on what pump is’ at my

field and over on the Swedish forums.Plays with a

dust black CCM S6.
Other curiosa, I study at the university to get an degree as an constructor engineer.

Alexander “Pidde….” Pedersen. That’s my friend. Born in -93.
Has been playing paintball for about one year, or 2 seasons. Skinny guy, makes me hungry for chickenwings when I see him.He has kind of been my little

pump apprentice. He first played with a SL68 II and then contacted me about a year ago and had lots of questions about pump play. After answering all of those and showing him my gear he was hooked and has played pump only since then.He currently plays with a red polished CCM S6.
Alex is a smart player, small and fast but always thinks befor

e he moves.

Goes to second year high school, and plans to make a living doing nothing.

− Simeon ”no MCB nick” Svensson. Born in -86. A long time friend of mine, and we started playing paintball at the same time. Has therefore shared the interest for pump all the time, and he has recently bought a Phantom.Does not come out to play as much as he used to, but when he does he plays pretty aggressive.
Studies construction aswell.

Stay tuned for the next update, probably in the next week! We should have got our practice jerseys and t-shirt by then!

Welcome!
