Joining the Team, a newbie experience

Posted by Jason Price on Wednesday, May 8, 2013, In : Personalities 

So I have recently got into airsoft and started playing with a team, at first, I must have to admit that I did have some apprehension of playing, as thoughts such as, Are they going to like me?, Are they a bunch of hard core military nuts?, am I a horrifically bad aim?, crept into my mind and created doubt. However when it came to my first match with the team, it honestly surprised me! They were all incredibly welcoming and treated me as if I had been with them for years! If I asked for help ...

Sunday, 2nd September 2012 saw Garry, Greg and me heading to Land Warrior Airsoft’s skirmish site, situated in pine woodland on the outskirts of Edinburgh. All three of us were excited to game here, having heard many good things about the site, none more so than the fact they have two, yes two, working FV432 APCs! Upon arrival we paid our green fee (£20 with your own kit), were allocated our team and then got kitted up. The safe zone isn’t huge, and isn’t covered, but most people seeme...

Op Ocean Fury, Cope Hill Down, Salisbury Plain

Well, the team has been back a month since Op 'Ocean Fury', and what a blast!
A weekend of high adrenalin, pyrotechnic madness, in freezing conditions.
We rocked up on the friday night, grabbing the downstairs rooms in the Forward Operating base (FOB).

Shadow Stalkers Chairman

11 years in the regular Army Air Corps, followed by 6 years as an Officer in the Royal Air Force Reserves.

Now working as a Secondary School Science Teacher.

Started importing airsoft guns pre-UKARA to be used for Cadet training purposes, and the hobby followed from there!

Formed Shadow Stalkers as a Cadet Training Team, to give those wanting to join the Armed Forces, a taster of what was expected. This gave the cadets a major advantage, and out of the 60 cadets who attended the course, there was a 100% success rate in those who went to serve in the Queens uniform.

After leaving the R.A.F.R., Shadow Stalkers was rebooted as an Airsoft Team, following the same ethos of the original team, in training to succeed.
