TEAM BIO...
We are a team that believes in each other and sees each others goals through. Together we help one another to accomplish those goals. Without our full teams effort, none of our dreams and goals would have been possible today. We are a team that is more like a family than a tactical squad. Playing far back as 1988 when woods ball just was still in its infancy, some of us kept at and are still together today, adding new members and even other teams to the Undertakers family. It wasn't till 2004 when the full effect of creating a scenario team came true. Team captain, "Hercules Papadogiannis" first founded the team in October 2004. His mission was to share something he loved to do and teach others that paintball really isn't as dangerous as people make it out to be. Of course there are chances of getting injured, but with the proper equipment and training, you have more of a chance to get injured riding a bike. So in mid October 2004, a group of friends and coworkers got together on a Business Co-op outing. That's where the action began and the team was created. The group formed a total membership of 45 players. Some played here and there, and others to took it one step higher. The group grew faster and faster and has a total of 75 members ranging from all around the globe. Some parts include: Canada, Greece, Germany, and many states in the USA, including: NY, NJ, PA, CAL, Ill, and CT. That's why we say we are a family that has no borders... Thank you all to all who have joined us, played iwth us, supported us and who believe in us. Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today. Thank You...
WHO WE ARE...
Our team is a TACTICAL SCENARIO Team. In no time wasted we realized we had some great talent on our side and wanted to do something with it. We fast created a starting line up of players in which they would represent our professional scenario team. Meaning this would be the Best Of The Best. Entering competitions and doing damage! Some could call it, "THE ELITE" or "Special OPS". Call it what you want, but this starting line is here to do some big damage in the scenario world. Our skills come from the many years we have in hands on backyard paintball and from the military backgrounds of many of our members. We also practice with a great group of other scenario teams and we all help and coach each other. Learning from our mistakes so we wont have any on gameday! Find it hard to believe, but it's not. Each and every member is hand picked from a group of ranking officers that our team has, and is trained in military ops training. Each member is trained to survive on his own, take out a teams full platoon and do some serious damage on his or her own. We work in small units. Groups of five to seven. Trained to take out 150 players, who needs more. The damage is done!
GOT WHAT IT TAKES...
Our team is always recruiting and will continue to commit to the game. We are always looking to recruit members who feel they would be a great asset to our team, but it won't be easy! We are only looking for serious players who can commit to the team and it's sponsors. We have a lot on the line and can't afford to lose the relationships, sponsorships and respect we have earned as a team. We have accomplished many goals as you will see in this site and will continue to do so. So if you feel you can handle the loyalty and commitment we demand, contact us for further team evaluation. After you have played with us and show you are a person that undertstands what it means to earn respect will you be evaluated in becoming a member. We know it sounds rash, but if your a serious player and want to push the sport ahead, then you understand what our commitment is about, and why our sponsors choose to have us represent thier name. They are hard to come across. We want to continue our relationships with them and do our best to support them as they have done for us...
THE COMMITMENT...
As a new member to be, you must first attend a practice or two with us. Attend a Scenario Game that we are attending. Be able to commit to at least 5 to 6 scheduled team games a year. Purchase of a team JERSEY, BDU and Rap 4 Tactical Vest, which will include all patches. After that and its up to you how far you advance in our team, as we have a military ranking system where dedication and hard work to make the team better is rewarded. So if you feel that you can make this commitment and would like to join us, than we want to hear from you, especially if you took the time to read this opening statement. Then you already have one foot in the door. Hope to hear from you, and good luck...
Hercules Pappadogiannis
Team Captain
