I’m team Jersey.
It’s a single year event (maybe bi-annual depending on your future reaperballs) and I’d rather play in a jersey for all the reasons that they’re better to play in over shirts. So, a one time purchase jersey and shirts for funsies moving forward seems better to me.
i guess it would depend on cost of both, but im pretty confident we can get jerseys sub-$50. (source, I’ve been doing it for years and they’re all holding up wonderfully.)

The outcome seems unanimous. We will be doing AG pumps Saterday. Followed by OSG Scenario SUNDAY.
TShirts vs Jersey is something I will think over. Each has its up & downs.Comment

Woot! We were discussing ReaperBall yesterday at Xtreme with the boys.
I feel like a lot of us have bins of Jerseys. I’m with whatever the group decides. Ultimately it’s you’re call Keith.
I think I’m with the general consensus in saying I’m indifferent either way.
In my opinion I think a simple bright color logo on maybe a darker background maybe even fall color. But something that pops on the back so a Teammate is instantly recognizable from the back for the scenario. Up high between the shoulder blades so you can see it with a pack on. I would skip names and numbers. Maybe even keep it to one bright color logo to keep cost down. If they are all universal it will make it much easier for you to organize and order just sizes. Go with A Decent quality to cost long sleeve that will last and can be used for other things then paintball something I particularly like. Players could always buy a size larger and cut the sleeves off and rock them over any gear they like. I played with a scenario team that did this and it worked out great for many many years. Keeping them cheap I think will net you the biggest participation and they also have more uses other then just paintball and offer a more useful product. I think all of us playing together will be a hell of a time. I want that MVT trophy going home with you at the end of the day. Lots of excitement around Reaper Ball this year I think you are making a good call. I’m super stoked for this BTW.

I know you want another jersey but I have a bins of them from over the years. Some made specifically to play one event. I rock the same Tiger Stripe Renagade just about every time I play. I’m down for whatever. I know my kids would definitely rock a long sleeve to school. They are always trying to get their friends to come play. -
I'd be down for skirts and thigh-highs

I agree with chuckie. Simple shirt with a high vis something on the back. Once used hanging high vis velcro from the back of my mask at ION. I think the principle will help with quick recognition and movement. I have faith in ya Keith you will come up with something cool. Use the ole KISS philosophy,and no Riot , there will be no kisses for you. LolComment

There is always at least one no shirt guy. I just don’t have the nipples for it. -
We can always bring high vis green spray paint for someone's back if they decide to go this route. Also remember its November in NH it gets alittle nipply.
But after the amount of nipples that got shot at the last two reaperballs I would not advise this approach.
One of my favorite exchanges last year was the castle game at AG
Steve "You shot me in the nipple!!"
Evan "Are out out?"
Steve as he walks off "You heard me say NIPPLE.. Didn't you?"

I'll get the official post us soon. Maybe even this week.
As for shirts/jerseys: This is what I think I want to do. Tshirt& longsleves this year. See how the game works for Reaperball. If we continue to do the scenario in the future I will revisit the jersey idea next year.
Also gives me a chance to see how "bright" images on the back work. Or if the idea bombs in use.Comment

Worth the trip 100% it’s going to be an amazing weekend. If you haven’t played the NH fields you are going to impressed. They are 2nd to None! Keep an eye on the calendar lots of great opportunities to come out and meet the crew. We have a really good group that meets regularly at various North East fields.

Ok, for the Reaperball regulars
This is what I plan for this years shirt. No dates so I can be used in the future.
It keeps colors to a minimum without giving up image quality. Thus keeping the cost to a minimum. And I plan on paying for the field owners shirts to help even more.
Now my question is Black or Green shirt?

Kit352 there is nothing on the front. Doing anything adds a min. of $10
But let me mess with it.
It is something I have gone back and forth with over the years. But it is the reason none of the Reaperball shirts except the first one I did have front images. I prefer to spend that cost on a better image on the back. Like the Alice shirts that had 11 colors on the back.
