1st World Airsoft Challenge

My team, Hammerheads (check our website here), is organizing the first ever world airsoft challenge on November 27-30, 2009 at Clark Freeport Zone in cooperation with Clark Development Corporation and the Philippine Department of Tourism.

Dubbed Rapier 01: World Airsoft Challenge, the event is expected to draw delegates from airsoft aficionados around the world. As of date, delegates from South Korea, Hongkong, Japan, Taiwan, United Kingdom and U.S.A. have already signified their attendance.

Visit our video promotion at popularairsoft.com where my son Kirk appears as one of the models while his dad waited for hours for the photo-op to finish, carrying all the gears, guns and ammos including Kirk’s hydration which was filled with 4 liters of iced tea. Both photo and video were taken at Missile Silo, our team’s mout site at Taguig.

Some lessons in airsoft

Words I always tell my kids before a game in airsoft:

1. Remember that you are joining a war. Be prepared for one. Gear up for the worst. Be sure that your guns are firing, that your mags are loaded, and that you are adequately protected.
2. Start with the end: your mission/objective. Visualize your game plan, create a mental picture of how you will work on and fulfill it. Anticipate deviations and be ready to deal with them.
3. Teamwork is essential. Coordinate your moves with your comrades. Be ready to cover for them, to sacrifice if you must.
4. Patience pays. As in any game, war is a game mostly of wits and not of brawl.
5. Above all, remember that as in life, it is a game. Never forget to have fun.
