MAD Ozzie

The Game yesterday was great, had a full book of 32 players, half from Cork and Half from Kerry. It was CORK V KERRY on the Airsoft battle field, and the day was a draw, so this match will happen again

Fantastic day, and a big thanks to all those that played.

ripexz

I'm a lazy guy so I wont bother searching through all those 15 pages.

So will you please tell me if SAC allows under 18s to play?

MAD Ozzie

Sorry mate, over 18's only at the moment , but that will change as of next March, then 16 and up.

ripexz

Thanks dude, gotcha. I suppose me n my friends will have to go to farer venues like HRTA...

horgan_p

some footage from yesterdays games :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GB3grIC9Ics

More footage later in the week including a "fly through" of the entire site - thats just the cqb there

Tommyboy71

Have ye got room for a journeyman airsofter. I am looking to do something different with the Halloween weekend and was thinking of heading down to play your site. Nothing confirmed yet. Have to see if factory maintenance shutdown is happening.

MAD Ozzie

Always room for new players, not sure about the Halloween week end just yet but ya never know, may be some fun to do a Zombie game?? for the Sunday.


Will see what the Club thinks.?

The hole place is 9 3/4 acres, with only 1.2 acre as cqb, and 2.5 as wood cqb, a VIP run can take up to 2 hour's to finish, if the VIP makes it through the track!!

Tommyboy71

Sounds good. I'll keep an eye on the thread. Cheers.

Puding

some pictures from the Sunday of the event, pity the weather on Saturday was so bad that pictures where impossible at the time

Tommyboy71

Nice pics. I have to play that site some weekend.

Dr_Pepper

Awesome pics what a site.
Can't wait for a flythrough of the whole thing, man i'm gonna have to organise a trip down there with the team!

Vintz

I'm sure the others will back me up on this, the pics are great but the site is oh so much better. The layout and game play has morphed into a totally different beast over the past month. Games are fast paced in one spot and a stalemate at others. What took thirty minutes before now takes about two hours.

The regular players and the tactical approach to games really gives a unique feel to SAS-C. No other site in the country has this sense of community feel to it. It's easy for me to keep going on and on and on about the place, bottom line is for people to get down here and check it out for themselves. Not more to it. Give Oz a shout if you guys do come down, that we we could be more accommodating and give ye pale faces a propper southern welcome. We're no longer a Cork site, we're a Munster/Southern site. Regular player from far and wide. All a great bunch and each bring their own flavor to the team.

Oz mate, I've said this a 1000 times I know, my hat is off to you. The club and site are finally coming of age and finally other sites are not only taking note but following suite. A true sign that the SAS-C approach is the right one. I'm sure others will join me in taking a moment to show their appriciation to all that Oz has do and indeen endured over the past ten months. HERES TO YOU SGT. MAJOR!

I look forward to Sunday, It's been a few weeks and I've got an inch at the end of my trigger finger that needs to be addressed in the traditional fashion....

See y'all there!

Vintz

iceage

Great pics guys.

MAD Ozzie

That's the job mate. ( A BIG THANKS TO OUR IAA REP VINTZ )
We run a tight ship with no BS, (Honest players welcome only)
Those who ant, (don't last longer than half a day)
Shoot and scoot is gone, its now hard core airsoft, the site is a mix of terrain with trenches and woods green and dead brown, A snipers play ground. We play more C.O.D.4 type games here, we have been told we are 10x better than the NY sites and and 9x better than Hungary sites, (By Full time army experts) NO BS!!! And we aim to compete with the UK sites.

But the site and club, don't and will not step over the fine line that is Irish law and the rules of the IAA.


Please come and check it out for your self, I will do a deal for a group of IAA members.
+ a free BBQ lunch, and if you need to stay on a Saturday night (Free camping) And a look at the site before you play. Its a team game or no win, no 1 man heroes here.

Thank you. And please, we welcome any team that wants to play here (By site rules)
Any time.
Now how to get a half an hour (walk through) in 5 min Vid.?????????? Hehe
The track around the site is a 25 min walk, try that under fire with bunkers,Fox holes and trenches!! Best time is 1hour and 47min with the VIP. (less with out VIP) But not much, hehe.

Our Marshals play with the teams + Hi-vis as well (1 for each team) (But not to give yas away).

Go on take the trip to Cork Airsoft Site,(SAS-C) and if ya not happy Ill give 10euro back. (With good reason) and you can hold me to that!!

We are a non profit club. All profits go in to the site and the Club.

Well doesnt time fly when you're having fun ? 12 months on and its time for membership renewal.

Heres what you need to know :


1) How much ? 300 Euro

2) How old do i have to be ?? 18 Years old on or before the 22nd of feb.

3) What do I get ? You get to play as often as you like for the year (guaranteed 24 games minimum) for just €5 a time green fee.

4) how much do i save ? well 24 x 30 = 720 ( and thats a minimum of 24 games)

5) What else do I get ? you also get a say in how the club is run and what direction Airsoft in Cork will take over the next 12 months.we'll also let you hit ozzie with a stick for 3 minutes on your birthday*may not actually happen*

6) OK Smart guy , what do i need to do ? you need to come up with €300 on or before the 22nd of Feb ( this is when our insurance is due), sign the club rules / constitution and thats it.


Joining the club helps cement airsoft in cork in its current state and makes sure that people ( i.e. you ) have somewhere to play for another 12 months.
Also from time to time we throw in discounts to events ( the gathering 2 last year) , prizes (rubber ducks) and other perks.
You'll also have the opportunity to put your name forward for marshalling duties , so anyone who thinks that ozzie , puding or myself are blind can show us all how easy it is('nt).

MAD Ozzie

I had to make a run for new cover behind the snow man, but I got hammered with at least 6 large snow balls.
Cold wet bombs, yuk, I dont like it.
Bloody kids thought it was great fun.

BlindedByGInge

Hi, BlindedByGInge.
The site is located on the Cork/Kerry border, just off the N22 (Cork side)
Most weeks we have between 14 and 24 players, we are open 2-3 Sundays a month.
Our rentals are a bit low at the moment but will be getting more soon.
Our age limit is 16+,(with parental consent) so you are ok there.
You can find a lot of info on http://corkairsoft.darkbb.com/

MAD Ozzie

A big thanks to all that made it today, and a big turn out for the first game of 09.
Great day and the weather was not to bad, rain stopped at game start in the morning and rain started again at lunch and finished just before we started to play again, and sun for the afternoon

Look forward to the next game day on the 8th of Feb.

Thanks from the Cork Airsoft Club.

LiNgWiStIkZ

Howdy,

On the site's rules it says that "All participants must be 18 years of age or older."

I thought it was 16+?

MAD Ozzie

Yea we where, but we changed at the start of the year, we run 2 games a month for under 18s, (14-18s) wich seems to be more fun than the winging old lads
(and 2 games a month for the old lads)
Will have to change that now.

Thanks for the heads up

StevieGriff

What? So what ages do ye alllow?
EDIT: Nevermind.

StevieGriff

The young guns event isnt member only,, right?

MAD Ozzie

You dont have to be a member to play here, walk-on's are more than welcome.
We just need to know who and how many are coming on the day.

StevieGriff

Ah ok, you said you hold two 14-18s games a month, is there a date set for the second event?

MAD Ozzie

1st and 22nd of March.
