Anyone going to shoot the matches??

I would, but I'm not old enough. I wish these matches were actual events that I can enjoy with other people.

Don't let your age hold you back. You can still practice the postal matches and even post your scores. (They just won't be tallied at the end of the month.) Invite some friends over and run through the postal with them.

Also, if you can attract some adult players they can form an AAPS affiliated club and have a Junior division that competes using the AAPS rules. Again though, that division and it's scores would not be sanctioned, but it's permissible as stated in the rulebook.

In the future we may look at developing a Junior Program, but till then, you can still be involved.

On the webpage doesn't it say that I have to be 18 years old to enter?

Well, Vainguard, you've piqued my interest in this issue and I've done some research. The only location the AAPS website I could find a minimum age requirement is on the FAQ. It gives the reason behind it as being the legal age to purchase airsoft pistols, but that doesn't appear true.

Let me examine the issue in more detail and we'll have a decision on the issue.

Stay tuned!

Cool, no worries.
