Paintball is quite a new sport and is becoming more and more popular. It has been around since 1982, but professional paintball teams have just recently come together in 2002. The rules of paintball are not very complicated and are very concise. The game is very entertaining to play. There are also plenty of different types of products used to play the game. It is the one of the only sports that I am interested in and I hope that someday it could become a more popular sport.
The first known paintball gun or “marker” was made by John Barker in 1982. At the time he had a job designing air guns for Daisy Inc. The gun that he made was a single shot pump gun; he called it the “splatmatic”. Daisy did not want to market his gun so he started a small company with some of his friends and called it Splat Markers. The company was soon a success and in 1986 he changed the name to JT Products. Now JT Products is one of the largest paintball companies in the world, producing practically everything needed and used in the game of paintball. They have also made the NPA (National Paintball Association). This was created in 2002 and has many different teams that are sponsored by a variety of companies. Paintball has come a long way since the creation of the splatmatic and is now a very popular and sport.
Paintball is not just a group of people shooting each other with paintball markers; the sport involves a few simple rules. These rules are from the NPA and are the most commonly used. All paintballs that break on the body count as an elimination and that player is out. Any player within ten feet has the option of surrender and has 3 seconds to do so, any movement from that player and his “chance” is over. All markers must be chronographed at fewer than 300 fps. A hit from a teammate does not count as an elimination. The paintball must pop on a player to count as an elimination. Any player hit with a ball must call out “HIT” and raise his or her gun in the air and walk off of the playing field. All players must stay in the designated boundaries or they will be counted as out. Barrel plugs must be used at all times when not on the playing field.
2. Daisy, which is one of the most renowned air guns company, did not start out by manufacturing BB guns. It began its business by manufacturing windmills.
A plethora of companies began introducing water guns to the toy market before the 1980s. No name companies began creating water pistols in the shapes of sea-creatures and cartoon characters, while others introduced more intricate designs from movies like Star Trek and Rambo. One company, Entertech, even went so far as to produce battery-powered water weapons but the designs proved to be a little too life-like. The water guns began resembling real live machine guns like those used by G.I.'s and some even came equipped with a back pack and grenade devices. The water weaponry market continued evolving, and soon enough, perhaps the most important contributor, Lonnie Johnson, came into the picture. A nuclear engineer, who, in 1982, thought of creating a water gun, that could shoot up to great distances without the technicalities and expenses of battery power, Lonnie Johnson gave birth to the industry's most successful water weapon. After 8 years of inventing and innovating a high performance toy water gun, the Power Drencher (eventually renamed the Super Soaker) was born. The "water weaponry revolution" began in 1989 (Johnson 1).
...need to know. The most important is the general rules of the demolition derby. These rules tell a participant how to build their car and the requirements of the car. Rules are important when building a demolition derby car to keep the driver safe and prevent injuries like a broken nose or wrist. A broken wrist can happen by not letting go of the steering wheel when getting hit in the wheel, the steering wheel can jerk around and break a participants wrist. It is possible to break your nose by hitting someone or another participant hitting you so hard that you smash your nose on the steering wheel and break your nose. Demolition derby and regulations can make the sport fun and safe. The motto I live by when doing demolition derby's is ''Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.” by Dr. Suess. This helps me remember if I win or lose, I had fun doing it.
It should be noted that there are many different ways that are employed to get a marker to shoot a paintball out of the marker. Nearly every brand of marker has a different firing system. All have several things in common. They all have some sort of tank with compressed air or C02 or Nitrogen. Then they usually have sort of bolt and hammer system which is cocked back and held in place by a sear which compresses a spring. When the trigger is pulled it releases the sear. The restoring force of the spring pushes the bolt and the hammer forward starting the paintball moving then the C02 is released propelling the ball outward.

Lacrosse is the oldest team sport in North America, having been played by Native American tribes long before any European had even set foot on the continent. A century after European missionaries discovered the game played by Native Americans, they began to play it themselves, starting in the 18th century. From there, it evolved and grew in popularity from a very savage game that resembled war, into what it is today, a recreational sport played widely in America and other countries. As U.S. Lacrosse literature aptly puts it "Lacrosse is a game born of the North American Indian, christened by the French, adopted and raised by the Canadians, and later dominated by the Americans.”
Nerf Started in 1969 by the creator of Reyn Guyer. Reyn created the Nerf brand in Minnesota. He started this brand for safety. At first he started the brand for volleyball.

Games similar to soccer were played in China as early as 400 B.C. In 200 A.D. the Romans played a game in which 2 teams tried to score by advancing the ball across a line on a field, which means no soccer goals. They passed the ball to one another, but not by kicking it. Also in the 1100's, London children played a form of soccer (World Book Encyclopedia, S p.73).
The developments of gunpowder and the cannon were the most important advances during the Middle Ages. If it weren't for these inventions, who knows how we would be fighting today, possibly still the wars of Ancient Rome. The development of gunpowder meant that soon the use of knights would be useless because of the projectile that could easily knock a knight off his horse, rendering him helpless. The gunpowder enabled this projectile. The development of the cannon goes hand-in-hand with the gunpowder. This invention enabled things to be projected by the use of gunpowder. This invention also stopped sieges, which ended the need of city-walls. The crude versions of these weapons were used during the Hundred Years War, between England and France. Eventually these inventions paved the way for the modern gun and other inventions like bombs. These developments were truly the most important things that came out of the Middle Ages.

Before you shoot your first paintball you need to take into consideration the type of clothing you wear to paintball. A general rule of thumb is the more padding the less bruises. If you are playing in a wooded area, fatigues are an obvious choice, but playing indoors, a couple of shirts and a pair of jeans work very well. It is also a good idea to wear a pair of gloves with the fingers cut off, because if you are hit in the hand with a paintball it stings. The same thing goes with a hat. There is one thing that you must never play paintball without. That is a face mask. It needs to cover your entire face and include goggles. If you are hit in the eye with a paintball it will put your eye out.
I had my first experience with the sport when I was very small. At the age of 5 my family brought me to a Nashville Titans game. I still vividly remember the lights,colors and players being at such a young age I immediately fell in love with it. I wanted so bad to be like those 11 men on the field. As I grew older as many things do it began to interest me, it was all around me the games,teams,posters,media football has covered every single part of the country. From college teams to the National Football League, a young American boy simply has to notice.
